Interviewed by calciomercato.com, Vasco da Gama president Roberto Dinamite has declared: "Inter Milan and Juventus on Dedé? For the moment I had no contacts with these clubs. The player is admired in Italy, Spain and England but nothing concrete. If we will receive an important offer  we will evaluate it, but only at the end of the season, not this summer".

If the duel between the two Italian giants for the 23 year old Brazilian defender has then been postponed, the two clubs continue their hunt for a new forward. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter have overtaken PSG in the auction for Napoli forward Ezequiel Lavezzi and in the next days there should be a meeting for the transfer of the Argentina national to Milan. Also Juve could soon have their new striker: according to La Stampa, in fact, the bianconeri have found an agreement with the Agent of Arsenal 28 year old Robin Van Persie, that should sign a four year deal with the new Italian champions. Now the agents of the Dutchman must convince The Gunners, that seem still intentionned to extend the player's contract.
