Fluminense have placed a 22 million-pound price tag on Manchester United target Gerson.

The 17-year-old has caught the eye of Old Trafford scouts for his performances with Brazil's under-20 team, according to talkSPORT.

An attacking midfielder, Gerson has already made 12 first-team appearances for Fluminense and scored four goals.

Fluminense are understood to be keen to hold on to the teenager until after the Rio 2016 Olympics in the hope his value will rise.

Gerson has also been linked with Chelsea, Juventus and Barcelona
