Sao Paulo are moving for departing Olympique Marseille coach Andre Villas-Boas.
AVB offered his resignation publicly at a media conference yesterday ahead of OM dismissing him in the afternoon.
Globo Esporte says Sao Paulo want to bring the Portuguese to Brazil.
However, the stumbling block could be the wages demanded by the former Chelsea and Tottenham manager.
At OM, he was on €3m-a-year.
