Samba ace Lucas' £8m Kop deal


BRAZILIAN wonderkid Lucas Leiva is joining Liverpool after they made him an offer he could not refuse.
The 20-year-old holding midfielder has agreed personal terms on an £8million move from Gremio.
He admitted: “I didn’t expect to leave Brazil so soon but what I have been offered and the team from which it came made it impossible to say no.
“Liverpool have made me an excellent proposal in the financial and professional aspects.
“I also realise my departure will be a huge help to Gremio in resolving some of their financial difficulties. That makes me happy with the decision.”
Lucas, skipper of the national Under-20 team, will move to Liverpool in July after the end of the Brazilian season.
