Agent has not held talks with Blues or Real Madrid
Dede's agent has denied hearing of any interest from Chelsea or Real Madrid in the Vasco da Gama defender but says there have been enquiries from Italy and Spain.
The 23-year-old has performed well in Brazil this season and has already played for his country, leading to speculation that he could soon be on his way to Europe.
Chelsea and Real Madrid had been strongly linked with a move for the player but his agent, Giuliano Aranda, has not been approached by either club.
Asked about Real's reported interest in Dede, Aranda told
uperVasco.com: "No, I did not get anything.
"Also, for Chelsea I had nothing."
Honour
Aranda has admitted that Dede would relish the chance to play in either Italy or Spain, and at the moment the greatest level of interest appears to be coming from Serie A.
"I was in Italy talking to various directors about Dede," Aranda stated.
"After all, he is the best in his position in Brazil, so it is normal that such conversations occur.
"I've had conversations with the directors of Juventus and Milan informally, but there have been no concrete proposals."
Aranda added: "Dede loves Italy and Spain, as the English market is unique. Going to one of these countries would be a great honour for the player.
"We have had proposals for a big club in Spain and a big club in Italy."
