• Daniel Alves

Brazil full-back Daniel Alves has admitted he is interested in a potential move to Chelsea. Alves was on the Copa America championship team, and actually scored in the final vs. Argentina.

The 24-year-old has been linked with a £20million switch from Sevilla to Stamford Bridge. “I always said that I wanted to leave Sevilla by the front door, especially after the great season we’ve had. It’s not that I want to leave, but I cannot turn down the opportunities that I have,” said Alves.

• Alexandre Pato

European champions AC Milan have won the race to sign 17-year-old Brazilian forward Alexandre Pato from Internacional, the Italian club said. The highly-rated Pato shone for Brazil at last month’s Under-20 World Cup in Canada and Milan beat Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Chelsea to his signature following lengthy negotiations.

Italian media reports said he cost 22 million euros ($30.1 million) and had penned a five-year deal.

The Serie A club had been under pressure to bring in new faces after vice president Adriano Galliani pledged to bring in one of Samuel Eto’o, Ronaldinho, Andriy Shevchenko, Didier Drogba or Pato.
