Great player but I doubt it's realistic for us. He was saying he wanted to go back to Brazil a few days ago?

"The biggest problem is that I still have a year-and-a-half on my Chelsea contract, it will be difficult to get released. If I had less time on the contract a return to Brazil would be easier."

He handed in a transfer request in December which was accepted, so why would he say that.

[Rsonist]

Hm yeah that's true actually. Not like Santos can't afford the £2m.

Has there been any word on how the talks went yesterday???

[DouDou_87]

What a signing he would be, used to watch him alot in his PSV days, superb defender.

Doesn't that mean that Chelsea want a fee and brazil clubs unwilling to pay it.

[stainrodisalegend]

Think James is right. Juventus presumably wouldn't have a problem with paying £2m but if he can't return to Brazil just yet and if his family are fairly settled in London then we might be in with a shout. Just hope Arsenal don't nip in and take him. Have we ever been linked with a Brazilian international before, other than one who was about 95 and smoking 60 a day?

According to Captain Pugwash on the other thread, the talks failed yesterday. Think we need to wait and see what the reliable sources have to say first.

Apparently SSN are saying that all parties want it to happen and it's a real possibility......
