Edenilson 'to return to Corinthians on loan'

Udinese defender Edenilson has reportedly entered discussions to return to his former club Corinthians on loan.

The Brazilian is unable to play for his current employers in Serie A because they have exceeded their quota of non-EU players for the season, Football Italia reports.

Edenilson, who has rejected an offer to train at Udinese without playing, was on the verge of joining Bologna for a six-month loan in January, but the move collapsed.

Corinthians are now expected to take him on loan until June.
