Newcastle United boss Steve Bruce is ready to make a new Brazilian addition.

The Sun says Bruce is also looking at Brazilian Marrony at Vasco da Gama.

But Toon would have to pay a huge fee to help his work permit hopes.

The winger, 20, is tipped for a bright future but would struggle to get into the country unless the Geordies offer a large sum, which influences the appeals procedure.

Marrony has spent his entire career with Vasco.
