Fulham are willing to do a deal for striker Carlos Vinícius this month, with Bahia and Palmeiras considering moves for him.
That’s according to journalist Bruno Andrade, who says a deal is there to be done this month should the Brazilian duo want it.
Vinícius has again found himself playing the secondary striker at Craven Cottage this season, with Raul Jimenez taking up the first-choice spot under Marco Silva following the departure of Aleksandar Mitrovic.
It means he’s only managed to feature in 17% of the available minutes in the league this season and that has led to speculation he could move on in the January transfer window.
A return to Brazil has been mooted over the past month and Andrade says that is very much a possibility as Bahia and Palmeiras are ‘in contention’ for his signature.
He explains that those two are currently out in front as Sao Paulo had shown an interest in a deal but didn’t move forward with that interest.
He further explains that Fulham have already announced behind the scenes that they want to negotiate for the player in January, who also has suitors in Mexico, namely Monterrey.
It’s now up for those sides to step forward and get a deal done, but with Fulham more than compliant, that doesn’t seem to be too difficult a task.
