Paquetta, who has two presentations for Brazil, has been linked to a crossing in Milan and Real Madrid after marking nine goals and donated 9 assets in all competitions this year.

Paqueta's name may be unknown to those who do not attend the Brazilian elite or Brazilian National Championships, but its presentations to Flamengo have fallen to the eyes of some of the biggest European clubs.

But what more do you need to know about Paquetan, and why are European clubs after him recently?

Below, you can read everything you need to know about him.

Who's Lucas Paqueta?

The 21-year-old is in Flamengo since the 10-year-old age and has been promoted to the first team nine years after successfully passing the youth academy.

He debuted in Campeonato Corica in 2016, a competition for teams from Rio de Janeiro, as 18 years old, but he had to wait until May 2017 to debut at the Brazilian championship.

The midfielder has played for Flamengo so far in 88 matches, marking 17 goals and donating 5 assistings in all competitions, while he also has good reports with Real Madrid's assailant, Winnitius Junior.

His presentations have led Brazil coach Tita to invite him to the U.S. and El Salvador games recently, presenting himself to these two matches as replacements.

What position does Lucas Paqueta play?

Exactly, Paqueta is a midfielder, but the Brazilian is more than that.

Carrying 88 matches for Flamengo from its debut, Paqueta has played in five different positions so far as the central midfielder to the side post.

But Brazilians are better off playing in the position of the offensive midfielder, where it can be of great help to attack, but it can be protected when the team needs it.

Impressive with the ball, Paqueta has named for his extraordinary skills, while completing 44 drives so far this season -- an average of 4.02 drives for 90 minutes.

The midfielder is not only <x0now-man”, it has also created 32 goals, but this season has not yet donated any assistance.

But, Paqueta is the best goalist at the Brazilian championship with 9 goals, 4 more than any other player on the list.

Paqueta is also strong with the game in the air, winning 95 air duels at the championship this season -- 29 more than his closest follower. On average for the match, he has won, 8.68 air duels won.

In spite of his advanced position, Paquet also has positive defanzies. He has made 65 interventions so far this season. Only midfielder Gustavo Cullar (78) and Rene (70) have more interference than that at Flamengo.

Which clubs want Lucas Paqueta's transfer?

The style of Paqueta's game and his young age have led the Brazilian to contact many popular clubs in Europe.

According to the media, Manchester Unitedi, Liverpool, PSG, Barcelona, Juventu and Milan are monitoring the 21-year-old and want to bring him to Europe.

Milan was initially interested in it in September this year, where journalist Gianluca Di Marzio confirmed that”Rossons” are favourites for the Brazilian transfer of 50m euros.

These reports took further steps when Globo Esporte wrote that Milan completed the attacker's transfer, while only medical tests are left to be carried out.

Is Lucas Paqueta” the new Kaca”?

It is dangerous for Brazilian midfielders to be compared to Kaka, as it is difficult to have the genius of legend then the epithet had its own Lucas Piazzon of the Chelsea. But nothing happened to him.

But comparisons, Paqueta ʹka are more logical, even because of the same style of playing.

If Paqueta was transferred to Milan, it would adapt well enough to the system, 4-3-3, helping players like Hakan Calhanoglu, Gonzalo Higuani and Suso.
