Manchester United are keenly interested in Brazilian prospect Robinho Junior.
Fichajes reports that they have shown strong interest in the young Brazilian and are determined to push him hard.
Robinho Jr. is a player of the future.
The 17-year-old is highly regarded across South America and, with the right guidance, could develop into a top-class player. He is a versatile attacker who can function anywhere in the front three. Manchester United could develop him into a future star.
The opportunity to play in the Premier League will be exciting for the young attacker. He is considered one of the jewels of Brazilian football. A move to England could help him accelerate his development and realize his potential. He would be a long-term investment for an English club and they could develop him as a resource.
Manchester United have always had success in developing young players. They also want to contribute to the development of the 17-year-old player.
Several other clubs are monitoring his progress and it is unlikely that Manchester United will be able to secure his contract unchallenged. If you want to complete the transaction, you should try to act quickly.

Robinho could make a big move
If Robinho Jr. wants to develop into a star, he needs to test himself at the highest level. A move to Manchester United would be ideal. However, he will need to secure adequate guarantees from the English club before making the move. Sitting on the bench at a big club is not going to help him. He needs to join a team that has a clear plan for his development.
It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Manchester United have the financial power to convince Santos to sell him in January for a premium.
It remains to be seen whether a formal offer will be made in the coming weeks.
