The Flamengo youth academy product is extremely quick which can be a huge asset on the counter-attack. His natural flair and dribbling ability combined with his remarkable close control make him very hard to dispossess.

At the tender age of 17, the Brazilian is showing promising signs and could well be the next big thing to come out of South America.
