Already knowing goalkeeper Alisson - a stalwart of Brazil's World Cup qualifying campaign to date - very well, Tite was primarily there to watch Emerson Palmieri, Bruno Peres and Juan Jesus.
Jesus has been capped at international level for the Selecao, but Peres and Emerson have only recently come under consideration after impressing for the Giallorossi.
"I was keeping an eye on Emerson [Palmieri] and Bruno Peres but I've already taken a look at Alisson in the past," Tite told reporters. "It's our job to watch the Brazilians playing in Europe."
The two full-backs perhaps have a lower profile back in their homeland, having left to make their name in Europe at a young age, but they could soon get international recognition.
"We're not ruling out anyone," he added. "Any top-class player involved for a big club could be an option - they could all be selected in their respective positions."
