Chelsea and Manchester United will reportedly battle it out for Santos and Brazil centre forward Gabriel Barbosa.

The 19-year old, who is nicknamed Gabigol, has also been a subject of interest for Juventus, Leicester City and Inter Milan.

However, Santos’ president Modesto Roma admits that he’s held talks with the Blues and the Red Devils over a potential deal.

“We had productive conversations,” Roma told Goal in a recent interview.

“There weren’t offers, but we did talk about partnerships. I talked to Manchester United, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid.”
