Corinthians have refused to rule out a move for Manchester United midfielder Kleberson.
The club"s director of football Paulo Angioni believes the unsettled Red Devil could be a great option for his side after seeing a move to Benfica fail to materialise during the transfer window.
Sir Alex Ferguson admitted recently that he would listen to offers for both Kleberson and Eric Djemba-Djemba, who joined Aston Villa on deadline day.
Kleberson had to return to Brazil for an operation on his ankle injury and that scuppered a move within Europe last month.
The World Cup winner"s name was mentioned in connection with Corinthians on Brazilian television by a well-respected reporter this week.
“The reporter who gave that information knows Corinthians very well," admitted Angioni to GE.net. “If he said that it is because he knows about something.
“I do not discard Kleberson. He is a good name and pleases everybody.
“I cannot say myself, though, if contact has been made with him on the part of Corinthians.
“Transfers of that importance take a certain time and I do not want to stipulate how long [it could take]."
