Barcelona are reportedly close to completing a deal for Fluminense's Robert, with the youngster set to join in January on loan with a view to a permanent move.
That’s according to Lluis Miguelsanz of Sport, who writes the Blaugrana are “a step away” from finalising the transfer on a temporary basis, meaning a deal could be confirmed in the coming days.
Manchester City and Chelsea are also said to be interested in the exciting attacker but seem to have missed out to the allure of the Camp Nou.
“Barca have watched the player on various occasions,” the piece continues.
