Express: Brazil ace in demand Apr 17th 2013, 08:04 This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club. Chelsea believe they have found John Terry's successor and are closing in on a £20 million deal for Brazil defender Dede. The Vasco Da Gama centre-back, who is also being chased by Liverpool and Manchester United, is set to be sold this summer with his club in the middle of a cash crisis. Club skipper Terry, 32, has one more year on his contract and Dede is regarded as a long-term replacement. Scouts have been monitoring Dede, 24, who has seven caps and is regarded as a player Brazil will build their defence around in the future. Long-term admirers Liverpool are ready to offer about £15m but Chelsea are ready to beat that bid and, with a strong Brazilian contingent at the club in the shape of Oscar, Ramires and David Luiz, they are confident of winning the race. Oscar and Ramires have formed a sensational triumvirate with Juan Mata, whose masterful string-pulling has led Rafa Benitez to call for him to be named the PFA's Footballer of the Year. Polls close on Friday, with the winner being announced at the gala dinner on Sunday week. Source: Daily Express This story has been reproduced from today's media.
