Corinthians striker Dentinho: Real Madrid watching me

Corinthians striker Dentinho is aware of Real Madrid interest.

The Brazilian could arrive in January as a replacement for injured centre-forward Ruud van Nistelrooy and he said: "They told me that there were people of Madrid here to see me."

"But they only watched me play, because a proposal has not been made."

Real scouts are also checking on Alex Mineiro (Palmeiras) and Guilherme (Cruzeiro) in Brazil.
