Real Madrid and Manchester United are fighting for 12 year-old
Santos superkid Jean Carlos Chera.
Only last week, Chera's Dad, Celso, met with Santos president
Marcelo Teixeira to inform him he intended to take his son to
Spain. Apart from a bumper offer from Real Madrid, the Cheras were
also unhappy with the coaching of Alberto Vieira, who was in charge
of Santos U13.
To hold onto Chera, Teixeira chose to sack Vieira, which appears to
have convinced the family to keep Jean Carlos at Santos - for the
time being.
Along with an offer from Real Madrid, Celso Chera revealed:
"Manchester United have also already made an approach."
