CSKA Moscow and Porto are in a bidding war for highly rated Brazilian teenage footballer Vitinho.

The Russian outfit was widely reported to have secured the 19-year-old striker on a five-year contract worth 10 million euros. But reports Monday night said Porto had made a counter bid, offering a higher transfer fee and a monthly salary of $200,000, reports Xinhua.

Vitinho has scored 11 goals this season for Botafogo, who are currently second in the league standings behind Cruzeiro.
