Brazilian defender Dodo has rejoined Sampdoria on a two-year loan from fellow Serie A side Inter.
The 24-year-old left-back spent the second half of last season at Stadio Luigi Ferraris, making 17 appearances.
Dodo, who began his career in his homeland with Corinthians, moved to Italian side Roma in the summer of 2012 before joining Inter on a permanent basis last November following a loan spell at the San Siro.
