Brazil gripped by gay footballer rumour

This nugget is from Popbitch:

"It's not just Britain that's obsessed by  gay footballers.

There's a huge rumour going around media circles in Brazil that a top player in Sao Paulo wants to come out on a TV show, Fantastico, but that his agent and the club are trying to talk him out of it."

We would hazard a guess, but tragically we know nothing about football in Brazil ... do you?
