Manchester United are reportedly preparing an offer for Benfica forward Talisca, according to The Mirror.
Talisca joined the Primeira Liga giants from Bahia over the summer, and has since then impressed with a number of top-shot performances.
The Mirror claims that United boss Louis van Gaal had sent scouts to watch the talented Brazilian in action during the Champions League encounter against Monaco where he score the winning goal.
In addition to this, the Dutchman is willing to sanction a move for the striker given his excellent progress since the start of the campaign.
The 20-year-old has been rewarded with a maiden call-up to the Brazilian national squad for the friendlies against Turkey and Austria.
