Inter knocked back the opportunity to sign Dudu from Palmeiras in recent months according to a report from FCInterNews.it.

The intermediaries who alerted Inter about the potential availability of Bayer Leverkusen’s Charles Aranguiz also alerted Inter about the availability of Dudu, who has spent almost his entire career in Brazil other than a three and a half year spell in Ukraine with Dynamo Kyiv.

Inter however declined the opportunity to land the 28-year-old who has been with his current employers since January 2015.

The three time Brazilian national team winger has made 188 appearances across all competitions to date for Palmeiras in which he has contributed 45 goals and provided 61 assists for his teammates meaning he makes a goal contribution every one and a half games or so.

The report goes on to state that in the coming months nothing more could come of this or things could ultimately change and Inter may end up changing their mind and pursuing him.
