Vasco da Gama defender Dede has revealed that Manchester United have not made an offer for his services.
The 23-year-old, who has been compared to Rio Ferdinand, has been linked with a move to United in recent weeks, but he has insisted that there has been no formal offer.
"No offer has come yet. I am glad to be compared to a great defender like Ferdinand, but I am only focused on Vasco. I was at the national team when a reporter asked me if I will join Juventus," Dede told Globo Esporte.
"I said I like them as they are a big European team, but at this point I am focused only on Vasco. If I leave, it will be in a more distant future. Rumours do not affect me."
Dede has two Brazilian caps to his name.
