Man, it's absolutely impossible to forecast something.
Last game he was horrible, subbed at half time.
I'm not sure it's a good idea to pay big for him right now. As time goes by, the tendency is the price to go down, since he wasn't called to the U20 WC and hype from South American will be forgotten.
Honestly if I'm Juve, I'm monitoring the kid, but wouldn't make an offer just yet.
On the other hand, Fluminense is absolutely fucked financially speaking. They are desperate. I'm sure he will be sold this year.
Anyway, I'd watch him closely at the Brasileirao to get a better idea. Could be a gem, could be a bust. Risk is too high if you're talking about 10M here.

PS: the game was already for the Brasileirao, against Atletico Mineiro, one of the country's top teams.
Some of the good games he had before were against minnows from the State of Rio.
Gotta follow his behaviour against the big boys when it counts.

Thanks for the update Pedro 
sounds like a typical raw talent, we aren't in the business of developing young talent (look at Coman), only if they are ready to grab their chance and explode.
But if they are really that desperate financially, it's tempting to low ball them and get him cheap just in case.

If giving up on Cavani means we're definitely keeping Pogba, Vidal, Tevez and Morata then I'm happy with it. Dybala is already a big addition to our attack. As awesome as a Tevez-Cavani tandem would be I'm perfectly happy with a strike force of Tevez, Morata, Dybala and two of Llorente, Berardi, Zaza and Matri. Get Darmian and a midfielder (Allan or if an opportunity presents itself for a proper AM) and that would be an excellent mercato.
