Fulham initiate contact to sign 27-year-old – Silva’s side considering formal offer step

Two months ago, Goal Brazil reported Fulham are one of the clubs in the picture to sign Palmeiras’ Raphael Veiga.

On April 15th, the same outlet explained the 27-year-old has been approached by Marco Silva’s side ahead of a possible move in the summer. It was also stated a deal could be carried out if there’s a convincing offer.

Fulham continue to be named as an interested party, and they’ve been mentioned again by iG Esporte.

The Brazil international has impressed for Palmeiras this season, managing eight goals and six assists from 18 games. His form has attracted interest from the Premier League side, who have been monitoring him for a ‘long time’.

It’s further claimed Fulham have carried out surveys with the player’s camp to learn about his situation, with the ‘possibility of formalising a proposal’ in the next window. The South American club haven’t yet received any offers for Veiga, who has a contract lasting until 2026.

The report doesn’t mention the fee needed to take Veiga away from Palmeiras in the next window.
