Brazil u-20 must have a lot of talent if Nathan isn't considered good enough.

Has played 14 times for Brazil u-20, including the South American qualifiers ,and was a star at u-17 level.

But was discarded a few weeks ago from coach Gallo's preliminary squad.

"Tim Vickery, a reporter on South American football, called Nathan "a playmaker who can thread a little pass". He said that although he performed well as an under-17 international, his performances at under-20 were below standard, concluding that "it’s difficult to see what he has done in the last season to justify" interest from Chelsea."
