A report claims that Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund currently lead the race to sign Santos teenager Gabriel Barbosa.

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly at the head of the queue to sign Santos striker Gabriel Barbosa.

The 19-year-old, who has previously been compared to fellow Brazilian Neymar, has scored 49 times in 139 appearances for his current club.

Barcelona and Real Madrid have been credited with an interest in the teenager, but according to Yahoo Brasil, Dortmund are currently in the driving seat as they prepare to put a £20m offer on the table.

Barbosa, who has scored six times in five appearances for Brazil's Under-23 team, netted 21 times in 56 games for Santos last season.
