Asked about the rumours linking Palmeiras forward and Brazilian youth international Keirrison (20), who joined Palmeiras last week, with several European top clubs among which Barcelona (read more here), the player's agent Frederico Pena has said in an interview with British tabloid The Sun that Barcelona is one of the clubs that have asked for the striker:
"We have been approached by a number of European clubs and agents supposedly speaking on behalf of clubs. They include Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Valencia, Porto, Hamburg, Lyon, Fiorentina and CSKA Moscow. However, we have not received any official offers.
No English club or agent has contacted us for the moment. I think this might be because he does not qualify for a work permit in Great Britain. He is now at Palmeiras and will play Copa Libertadores for them. There is no chance he will move to Europe this month. But for the summer there is a big chance."

dont really know anything about this guy, is he any good? what type of player is he? any chance he might be the new ronaldo?!
If you click the "Keirrison" label under the post, you can see some videos of him, SJP.
Keirrison is a very promising all-around forward prospect. He can score from the aerial ball as well as make plays with his feet. He has a very nice finishing touch for a player as young as he is. He is a good one.
Thanks pep. he looks quite good, physical enough for guardiola by the looks of him. much as i love etoo/messi/henry and am really hoping aguero transfer happens i do miss having a great brazilian in attack!
SJP...? aguero=argentinian
Sorry realise that was how it sounded but i realise aguero is argentinian, what i meant was that i would like barca to sign aguero but i do miss barca having a great brazilian in the front line...romario, ronaldo, rivaldo, ronaldinho. maybe we should start an agrentinian trend, messi, aguero, maybe icardi if he is argentinian?
According to FIFA 09, he's a target striker (whom we need)
