Lucas Beraldo, the 20-year-old defender from Sao Paulo, and Gabriel Moscardo, the 18-year-old midfielder, are on the verge of joining Paris Saint-Germain in the coming hours.
Grafite, a former Brazilian player turned TV Globo consultant, shared his impressions with L’Équipe about these two young Brazilian talents. For him, they have a profile reminiscent of illustrious former players.
“Of course, Moscardo will have to adapt. But his energy, dynamism, and ability to go forward can very well help PSG. He reminds me of Verratti at the beginning of his career. He, too, was very young (19 years old) when he arrived, right?”
“Beraldo, he reminds me of Ricardo. He has class. He plays well with the ball at his feet, and he is physically strong… He’s in his second season, and he’s already ready to make his mark at PSG.”
