Fluminense teenager Marcelo Pitaluga is a step closer to completing his move to Premier League champions Liverpool.
Reds scouts have reportedly been monitoring the 17-year-old Fluminense stopper for several months and have made a breakthrough in negotiations.
Globo Esporte reports Liverpool had their original offer rejected but returned with a second bid of £930,000 for Pitaluga plus a further £930,000 if he achieves various performance-related add-ons.
Fluminense were reluctant to sell Pitaluga but Liverpool's offer has apparently too good to refuse.
Pitaluga will sign a three-year contract with the option for a further two years.
