Real Madrid challenged by Arsenal, Spurs for Fluminense teen Miguel Silveira

Real Madrid face stiff competition from England for Fluminense teen Miguel Silveira.

The 16 year-old attacking midfielder has been likened to Barcelona ace Philippe Coutinho, currently on-loan at Bayern Munich.

AS says Real are interested in the youngster, though Arsenal and Tottenham are also keen.

Silveira penned terms to 2022 with Flu last year, with his contract carrying a €35m buyout clause.

Despite his youth, Silveira is a first teamer with Flu and has been on the books of Nike since ten years of age.
