Spanish football giants Barcelona are considering a move for highly rated Brazilian teenager Kenedy, according to media reports.

The 19-year-old impressed talent scouts during the South American Under-20 Championships in Uruguay earlier this year. The striker has been compared to Brazil and Zenit Saint Petersburg forward Hulk for his strength and powerful shooting, reports Xinhua.

Kenedy joined Brazilian top-flight club Fluminense in 2013 and has made 24 appearances for the Rio de Janeiro outfit.
