Udinese are considering Dantas, a talented but less experienced 21-year-old Brazilian defender born in 2004 who plays for Novorizontino in the Brazilian second division, as part of their search for defenders to cover the potential departures of Solet and Kristensen. Dantas joined Novorizontino in January 2025 and his contract is valid until the end of 2028. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €500k, and several Brazilian clubs, including Corinthians, Internacional and Athletico PR, have also reportedly been interested in the player.
