Three top European clubs have reportedly made an offer for young Chelsea target Bruma, according to the player’s agent.

talkSPORT understands that Jose Mourinho is desperate to bring the talented 18-year-old on board, but will now have to go up against former club Real Madrid if he hopes to be able to land the player who have been likened to compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Spanish giants are also joined by PSV Eindhoven and Galatasaray in the queue of clubs that have already made bids for the player.

However, his agent, Bebiano Gomes, has also stated that he could even be persuaded to stay in Portugal should Benfica or Porto happen to show an interest.

He told RTP: “I do not know if Benfica and Porto are interested in the player. For now there are proposals from Real Madrid, PSV and Galatasaray. If we should get proposals from Porto or Benfica they will be considered just like the others.”

Bruma, who is currently on the books at Sporting Lisbon, netted five times in four games for Portugal during the Under-20 World Cup earlier this summer and has quickly made the step up from Sporting’s second team into their starting line up.
