Brazil legend Carlos Alberto tells Man City, Man Utd: Ganso is No1

Brazil legend Carlos Alberto says Santos starlet Ganso should be at the World Cup.

Ganso is a major target for Manchester United and Chelsea, while Manchester City have first refusal on the youngster.

Carlos Alberto told the Observer: "This guy Ganso is the No1. But Dunga didn't call them. Ganso is 20 years old. He said he is too young, so I think Dunga lost the chance to recuperate the Brazilian tradition because the whole country was asking him to call those players. Good players.

"Ask anyone in football in Brazil and they will tell you this. If it goes well - OK. If it doesn't go well - you ask about the players who weren't there. Of course as Brazilians we should win the championship."
