Vasco De Gama have played down speculation they are interested in signing Manchester United midfielder Anderson.

The 21-year-old playmaker reportedly made an unexpected trip to Brazil earlier this week where he met Vasco officials when he should have been training in Manchester.

The former Porto man, who was axed for United's 4-0 weekend win over Hull City, is set to be fined two weeks' wages for going AWOL.

It had been thought that Vasco want to bring the former Gremio man back to Brazil, however, director of football Rodrigo Caetano insists that is not on the cards.

"He is great kid, but in terms of trading him, it is very unlikely," explained Caetano in The Sun.

"He has a good contract with Manchester and I cannot keep feeding this type of pipedream."
