Interviewed by Brazilian radio station Jovem Pan, Pele said: "Ganso and I will have a chat. I know that he is happy here. If it were to depend on me, he would stay for life.

"I believe the situation is similar to that of Neymar [who turned down Chelsea a year ago], and I am confident.

"A brief chat with Neymar was enough to convince him to stay and I also believe that Ganso will understand that it's the best thing for the moment.

"I will talk to him and I am convinced that he will decide to stay."
