Aston Villa, Manchester United, Brighton and Barcelona are monitoring Sao Paulo starlet Nicolas Bosshardt.
Ontheminute.com understands that the four clubs are all keeping a close eye on the 17-year-old Brazilian and that at least two of the clubs have made initial contact with Sao Paulo.
Nicolas Bosshardt has a massive €60 million release clause in his contract with Sao Paulo. The current contract expires in 2026.
Bosshardt would only be able to move to Europe when the Brazilian U-17 international turns 18 next summer.
It is believed that interested clubs are considering making a move already in January, but keeping the youngster in Brazil until next summer.
Bosshardt is yet to make his first-team debut for Sao Paulo, but is regarded as one of the most talented full-backs in Brazilian football.
