Report: Man City eye Benfica's Andrade

Benfica midfielder Victor Andrade is being lined up for a move to the Premier League by Manchester City, according to reports.

Despite having made just three senior appearances for the Portuguese side, the 20-year-old Brazilian is considered one of the brightest talents in the Primeira Liga.

Manuel Pellegrini is interested in adding Andrade to the Citizens' ranks despite Benfica's £25m price tag, reports the Daily Mirror.

Andrade, who is the godson of former Manchester City forward Robinho, joined the Portuguese side from Santos in 2014, and made 34 appearances for their reserve side last season.
