The 18-year-old striker, who holds dual nationality with France and Guinea-Bissau, has been one of the standout young prospects in Ligue 1 this season, earning plaudits for his composure in front of goal and rapid development at senior level. The youngster has scored four goals and provided two assists for the French club this season in 14 appearances. Chelsea have been the most proactive so far, establishing early contact with Vaz's representatives and maintaining open communication with Marseille's sporting hierarchy.
Barcelona have reportedly already agreed a fee for Dinamo Zagreb teenager Cardoso Varela who has been linked with the club for some time now. A new report from Mundo Deportivo states that Barca already have a potential deal in place for Varela. The club will play €5 million fixed plus €20m in add-ons. Varela is currently with the Croatian side for two seasons but, as things stand, it seems that he is expected to move to Barcelona after that.
Djylian N'Guessan is a player in demand Despite being just 17, N'Guessan has already shown attributes far beyond his age. Standing at 1.80m, he combines physical strength with excellent aerial ability, making him a constant threat in the box. What sets him apart, however, is his intelligence and his movement off the ball. These qualities, along with his composure in front of goal, have made him one of the standout performers in France's youth setup and a rising star in Saint-Etienne's senior side.
The 18-year-old striker joined Manchester City from PSG, and he is highly rated in the game. The African is expected to develop into a future star, and Liverpool will be disappointed to have missed out on him. Clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona were keeping tabs on his situation as well. However, Manchester City managed to win the race for him.
