Manchester United have made a bid for Kenedy, according to reports
The 19-year-old Fluminense striker, dubbed the 'New Neymar", is a Brazil under-17 international.
And United are reportedly keen to sign him despite competition from Chelsea and Barcelona.
But United are hopeful of using Barca's transfer embargo to boost their chances.
Although the player himself expressed an interest in playing for Chelsea saying: "I like Chelsea because of players like Oscar and Ramires. I like the whole team."
Kenedy is under contract until 2018 but, according to the Metro, is likely to leave for Europe this summer.
