It is the second successive transfer window where the Brazilian has been touted for a move to the Premier League before talks have fallen apart.
West Ham were keen to bring him to England last summer and even sent technical director Tim Steidten to Brazil to rubber stamp the deal.
Alberto has some European pedigree under his belt, although his spell with Zenit St. Petersburg yielded just 16 appearances.

He did however net four times in 11 league appearances for the Russian giants.
Wolves are now the latest club to pull out of a move for the forward at the last available moment.
Meanwhile, they have secured the transfer of PSG youngster Noha Lemina on loan for the remainder of the season.
There is an £800,000 option to make the 19-year-old’s move permanent in the summer.
