Palermo have identified Cortinthian's defensive midfielder Bruno Henrique as one of their top targets this summer, according to Tuttomercatoweb, via Football Italia.
Henrique, 26, has already been linked with a move to Italy this summer after making an impressive start to the season in Brazil with Corinthians.
Palermo narrowly avoided releagtion last season and they are wisely looking to add steel to their midfield after conceding 65 goals in Serie A last season - only relegated Frosinone conceded more (76).
The Brazilian midfielder only has four months remaining on his existing deal and will reportedly only be available for €3m (£2.6m).
Henrique has completed at least 17 more tackles than any other player in Brazil's top flight (84).
