Cruzeiro Overview

Wrexham have been urged to launch a January transfer swoop for Matheus Pereira, the Cruzeiro attacking midfielder who has experience of playing in the Premier League. The Welsh club are continuing their rapid ascent up the leagues and are now setting their sights on the Premier League.

Neymar delivered once more for Santos as the Brazilian icon inspired a crucial 3-0 win over Cruzeiro to secure the club’s Serie A survival. However, he admitted afterwards that his future is uncertain as he plans to undergo knee surgery. With his contract expiring in a few weeks and transfer speculation growing, the 33-year-old’s emotional post-match comments have heightened doubts over whether he will remain with his boyhood club.

Borussia Dortmund are turning their eyes to South America once again as they look to secure the next generation of football talent. The Bundesliga giants have reportedly sent scouts to track 17-year-olds Kaua Prates from Cruzeiro and Juan Cruz Meza from River Plate, both emerging as standout prospects in Brazil and Argentina respectively.

Neymar is proving that, when fit, he remains a creative force to be reckoned with - with the Santos star’s outrageous skills leaving opponents floored.
