- Arsenal are in talks with Brazil's Figueirense about a partnership agreement.
The Gunners had two representatives spend a week with Figueirense last month running their eye over the club's impressive academy facilities and working with coaching staff to identify potential signings.
A Figueirense delegation, which included managing director Rodrigo Prisco Paraiso, has also visited London to discuss a collaboration agreement with Arsenal powerbrokers.
Always a fan of these sorts of arangments, opportunity to shotgun decent young talent! Apparantly we have our eye on 'Pedro' - Brazilian under 17 international. He's had trials and our scout over there seems to think he could cut the mustard in the premiership!
We could do with a bit of flair at the moment as well, our team seems to be lacking players who can actualy beat people with skill, seem to be relying all to much on one touch passing.
but I think the rules are same for most of Latin America. That's why most of the good young players from South America end up getting scouted by continental sides.
