The report adds that the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) is also keeping close tabs on the winger's development. CBF staff visited the CT Rei Pele training ground in July to collect data and take kit measurements after shortlisting him for the Under-20 squad ahead of friendlies against Bolivia. Although he ultimately missed out on the final selection, the teenager remains firmly on the radar of both federations.
