AC Milan defender Digao has joined Serie B Crotone on-loan.

Digao is the younger brother of Real Madrid star Kaka.

"Crotone communicates to have acquired the rights of Rodrigo Digao from Milan and he arrives on loan with the option to buy half of his rights," confirmed Crotone on their website.

Digao left the Rossoneri last summer and joined Lecce in a loan deal that was set to expire in June 2010.

But that agreement was ended early and he returned to the Rossoneri, who have now sent him out on a second stint in Serie B.
