It’s now time for the Brazilian media to reiterate that Fulham are attempting the signing of André from Fluminense.
Following reports from the English press this week, Lance now comes up with a story backing up the information about the Whites’ latest bid.
It’s said Fulham are offering around €35m initially, with a further €5m in potential bonuses.
According to Lance, Fulham chief Alistair Mackintosh watched André live in the Copa Libertadores final last year, and already had a personal agreement with the player.
The report claims that the deal between the clubs isn’t sealed yet, though, so other bids may reach the Rio de Janeiro side in the coming days.
There’s big chance that André is moving to Europe, especially to the Premier League. Lance explains that Fluminense count on that money to plan their 2024 season, so they’re now analysing what comes to the table.
Fulham have been linked to André for a long time now, with the Brazilian media first reporting the Whites’ interest back in January 2023 and then making big coverage of this pursuit.
It was claimed that Marco Silva’s side made a few unsuccessful attempts to take the player, who was completely focused on his Copa Libertadores campaign with Fluminense, which ended in November.
Now it seems there’s a good chance this saga will be over.
