Report: Manchester United eyeing Brazilian wonderkid Lincoln

Manchester United have reportedly made an approach for Brazilian teenager Lincoln.

The 16-year-old's current club Gremio are already believed to have been contacted by Leicester City regarding the youngster's availability.

Boa Informacao claims that two teams have been in touch with the Brazilian outfit, with one of those interested parties thought to be the Red Devils.

Lincoln, who has made just two appearances for Gremio, has been praised by former Selecao boss Luis Felipe Scolari, who expects the youngster to make waves in the game.

However, a spokesman for the player's third-party owners, DIS Group, have suggested that a move away is unlikely at the moment due to his age.
