AC Milan plan Brazilian defence

AC Milan could line-up a Brazilian defensive duo made up of Paris Saint Germain’s Alex and Botafogo’s Doria.

Both players have been strongly linked the Rossoneri with the former already thought to have signed a contract.

According to Tuttomercatoweb the veteran Alex could be deployed alongside the highly-regarded young Doria.

The 21 year-old has performed brilliantly in Brazil with Botafogo and even played with Milan coach Clarence Seedorf.

The Dutchman is hoping to build a new defense capable of fending off the challenges of Serie A’s best attackers.

With Adil Rami’s future up in the air the Rossoneri are leaving plenty of options open to themselves in defense.
