Man City to rival Barcelona, Real Madrid for Alberto?

Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing Internacional striker Yuri Alberto but are likely to face intense competition for his signature.

The 20-year-old has scored 21 times in 65 appearances for his current side in all competitions, while he has been capped on two occasions by Brazil Under-23s.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are both said to be tracking the youngster, who scored three times in Internacional's 4-0 victory over Flamengo last time out.

However, according to Corriere dello Sport, there is also genuine interest from Man City, with the Premier League champions said to have been 'impressed by his maturity'.

The report claims that Arsenal are also tracking Alberto, with Internacional potentially open to offers in the region of €10m (£8.5m).

The South American still has four years left to run on his contract with Clube do Povo.
