The 22-year-old was specifically requested by new Coach Marcelo Bielsa.
The offer on the table is believed to be €10m plus €2m in add-ons.

“We do not want to sell Ganso and Rodrigo Caio, but some things are inevitable in football,” declared President Carlos Augusto.

“A player grows and gains value here, but then better situations emerge, more attractive challenges that obviously interest the players.
“If it was up to me, I’d keep both, but it’s possible I’ll have to sell both of them, because you cannot keep someone against their will.”
