Is he really of premship quality?

Big piece in today's Sun as well quoting Henrique on being impressed with QPR, Hughes etc. Still got to get a work permit though and as hei isn't in his team's first XI let alone the national team the club will have to really push at his FIFA Under-20 player of the tournament status to get him in, but there's no guarantee the Home Office will accept that.

Only time will tell, could be an absolute diamond or he may not

Sounds good...just want this sorted ASAP...hope work permit not an issue.

And the below statement shows why Hughes will attract more players than NW....

'The manager is known everywhere. He played for great clubs like Manchester United and Barcelona.

'As a striker, I know I can learn so much from him. I’ve always wanted to play in Europe and, for me, England has the most exciting league in the world.'

I cannot wait for this to go through.

Also i'd expect to see him at the Olympics with Brazil under 23's team which would be great to watch!

Good shout. Let's just hope he's our player by then and hasn't been bombed back to Sau Paulo with a declined work permit in his hand.....
