Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest are pushing for Santos wonderkid Marcos Leonardo, according to reports today.

The 20-year-old has been a hot topic in the Italian media lately, as AS Roma have just made an offer to buy him.

Journalist Gianluca Di Marzio says that today is the decisive day for the player to say whether he accepts the Giallorossi’s personal terms offer.
