Earlier on Wednesday, the Brazilian media broke the news about a big battle for Fulham star Andreas Pereira.
It was claimed that Aston Villa, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur all want to get him this summer.
Pereira today held a press conference at the national team camp, and as he was asked about his future, UOL shares some of his quotes.
“It’s difficult to talk about the future now, I’m completely focused on the national team. After the title, God willing, I’ll think about my future at the club. I’ll sit down with my agent and decide my future,” said Pereira.
According to today’s report from Globo Esporte, Pereira and Marco Silva had an agreement for him to stay at the club for at least two years, and that’s why Fulham rejected previous offers for him. However, there’s now an understanding that it’s time to consider offers that may arrive.
Although Aston Villa, Newcastle and Tottenham are the clubs fighting for him now, there’s reportedly some belief that other clubs could join the race after the Copa América.
