Hi eds. Used searched function regarding luan but no real answers. Is there any truth in the fact we have placed a bid? Thanks and apologies if u have answered it. Cheers.
{Ed002's Note - Gremio's Luan has been subject to enquiries from Leicester, Rennes and Milan but no offers have been made by any of these sides. Barcelona were keen to take him as a fourth choice striker but were put off by a very significant asking price and a request for him to stay at Gremio through to January - hence their moving for Valencia's Alcacer (who ironically will likely be replaced by a player from Barcelona). Others who watched the player in the Olympics including Manchester United, Benfica, Liverpool and Juventus do not see value in the asking price. An offer from China at the end of 2015 failed due to significant wage demands from the player's representative.}

I live here in Brasil and have to say I never thought particularly highly of Luan curious if others rate him. Am gutted City got Gabriel Jesus he is quality in my opinion.
