Cruzeiro defender on AC Milan radar
The current Cruzeiro man has been linked to the Rossoneri several times in the past, and Milan are reportedly willing to sign him in the summer transfer window.
According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Milan coach Clarence Seedorf could make the deal materialise using his connections in Brazil, the place where he last plied his trade as a footballer.
It is also worth noting that Dede has amassed three Copa Libertadores games this campaign, and has a deal which runs until April 2017.
