Fulham attacker has given ‘green light’ for transfer – Staff believe he’s leaving Whites

As Palmeiras engaged in a chase for Fulham striker Carlos Vinícius, Brazilian outlet UOL now features an interesting update on this pursuit.

The website writes that the Verdão got in touch with the striker’s staff, and the player has given the ‘green light’ for a return to his country.

Palmeiras are still to send Fulham an official offer, and the negotiations are set to start after the end of the Brazilian league, which finishes next week.

It’s made clear that there’s some competition for the signing, though, as the striker is drawing interest from Spanish, Italian, Turkish, French and German clubs.

UOL writes that Fulham have had several offers for Carlos Vinícius in the past, and chose to hold him, but his staff now believe a transfer is ‘more likely’.

There’s no mention of how much the signing would cost, while he’s currently valued by Transferamrkt at €6m.

Playing for Fulham this season, Carlos Vinícius has two goals in nine matches, and has only been on the pitch for 322 minutes. His contract with the club runs until 2025, with an option for an extra year.
