Internacional stopper Juan Guilherme Nunes Jesus has admitted that he hopes to join Italian outfit Inter.

"I can't say too much about it, but it is something that I want to happen," the defender told Globo Esporte.

"Playing in Europe is a dream for everyone. For now, though, I just have to concentrate on Internacional and finishing the campaign as well as possible."

The Nerazzurri are looking to rejuvenate their ageing defence and the 20-year-old has been on their radar for some months.

The Brazilian Under-20 international was also being watched by Serie A rivals Napoli, who reportedly had a €5m bid rejected for his services in the summer.

If an agreement can be reached between the two clubs, Juan could make a January switch to the Stadio Meazza.
