Palmeiras’ Estevao Willian is the latest standout from South America that’s drawing the attention of top European clubs. The latest information regarding the teenager reveals where Paris Saint-Germain stands in this race. 

In recent days, a report revealed that Chelsea have made a bid for the Brazilian as the English club look to gain the upper hand in the competition. However, new details indicate that no team has the edge, as FC Barcelona are also keen on the player.

According to GOAL Brasil, PSG are among the clubs that have inquired about the 17-year-old, known as Messinho, but no clubs have made a formal offer yet. 

Palmeiras expect to receive the net value of the release clause (€45 million), which means the interested clubs will have to pay the taxes for the deal, taking the overall fee to around €55 million.

It will be interesting to see if PSG makes any major push for the youngster as the summer months approach or if any other team attempt to gain an edge.
