While Brazil has always produced some of the world's best footballers, it seems that over the last couple of years a large influx of talented youngsters have started to impose themselves on the game in their homeland.
Like so often, though, finances mean that clubs in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A are unable to keep hold of their best players for too long. More recently, Oscar joined Chelsea, Lucas Moura went to Paris Saint-Germain and Neymar completed a switch to Barcelona.
A whole host of Brazilians have been linked with Premier League sides this summer and with that in mind, Sports Mole has selected five who could be showing of their skills in England in the near future.
Paulinho, Corinthians

Victor Andrade, Santos

Leandro Damiao, Internacional
Linked with: Tottenham Hotspur
Bernard, Atletico Mineiro
