English football clubs continue their intense hunt for teenage talent, following the example of London and acquiring two fifteen-year-old talents from Brazil - Rafael and Fabio.

Sir Alex Ferguson personally completed negotiations with the twin brothers playing in defensive positions, who should come to England after three years, when they reach adulthood.

The young talents caught the attention of the "Red Devils" coach by representing Brazil's youth (up to 15 years old) team in a tournament in Hong Kong. Interestingly, both play in the same withdrawn defender position, but on opposite sides - Rafael on the right, Fabio on the left.

The Brazilians had already visited Manchester and talked to the team's star Cristiano Ronaldo, who advised them to accept tempting offers.

"C.Ronaldo advised us to go to Manchester because it will be beneficial for us to play here," said Rafael.

Meanwhile, Fabio, who will celebrate his sixteenth birthday in July, confirmed that he still has a lot to achieve before going to England.

"Before going to Manchester, we will have to participate in South American and world youth (up to 17 years old) football championships," said the player. "We are extremely motivated because we want to provide better living conditions for our family."

The "Arsenal" team also showed active interest in the services of the young brothers.
