Looking for variable stars in the M31 dwarf spheroidal satellite Andromeda XXV (And XXV), which we have observed with the LBC at the LBT, we serendipitously discovered a clustering of stars (Gep I) of 12 arcsec in diameter, near the center of And XXV. This is one of the very few clusters known to be associated with a dwarf spheroidal galaxy. The half light radius (rh) of Gep I at the distance of And XXV corresponds to 25 pc in linear extension. Radius and absolute V (MV∼ −4.9 mag) magnitude place Gep I in the region of the MV-rh plane that seems to be forbidden to ordinary globular clusters (GCs). The seeing-limited resolution of our photometry could resolve only a few bright stars in Gep I. The CMD of these sources is compatible with an old stellar population placed at a heliocentric distance of ∼750–800 kpc, thus confirming a real concentration of old stars. The ground-based CMD of Gep I is severely incomplete. Future high resolution imaging and spectroscopy of the brightest stars will permit to disentangle the puzzle on the real nature of Gep I.
