Arsenal Transfers: 5 Forwards To Sign Now Fernando Llorente Is Unavailable

4. Leandro Damião

Damio Leandro Damião is one of the hottest young properties in club football at present. The 23-year old Brazilian has been heavily linked with a move to Tottenham but Andre Villas-Boas gave other interested parties hope in landing his signature by admitting defeat in bringing the player to White Hart Lane this month. The £20 million-rated forward was one of the most impressive young stars at the 2012 London Olympics and was Brazil's top goalscorer. He has also been capped twice at senior level for his country and played at Fulham's Craven Cottage in a friendly versus Ghana. Currently plying his trade for Sport Club Internacional, he scored 24 times last season and a remarkable 38 in all competitions the season before that, laying a marker in the process as one of South America's finest prospective young talents.
