Vasco da Gama defender Dede is being linked with AC Milan.

Dede is being mentioned as a replacement for Thiago Silva, who is a target for PSG.

"At the moment there are no direct talks with Milan directors," agent Giuliano Aranda told Calciomercato.it.

"There has been a lot of talk in the newspapers, but there's no offer yet. It might be that the Rossoneri are waiting to sell Thiago Silva before making their intentions clear.

"As for Barcelona, the same issue applies, as there has been a lot of noise in the papers because they are looking for a defender.

"We have had contacts with English clubs, but not with the Rossoneri or Catalans."
