Breaking News: fulham CEO Alistair Mackintosh have just sack marco silva just minute ago due to……

Fulham re-ignited talks with Fluminense midfielder Andre but are keeping their options open ahead of deadline day.

The 22-year-old Brazil international is ready to move to Craven Cottage, having agreed on personal terms in December, but securing such a major coup will be costly.

Andre will cost around £30 million, likely making him the biggest signing in the January transfer window, surpassing Tottenham’s £26.3 million deal for defender Radu Dragusin.

But Marco Silva is also keen to sign a striker. The Fulham boss is wary about spending his entire budget on a talented midfielder without securing a player in his priority position.

 

Multiple sources in Brazil confirmed talks about a potential bid restarted on Thursday, but Fulham are said to have stopped short of making an official bid.

They know that Andre, who has attracted interest from Liverpool and Manchester United in the past, could also use them to leverage a move to a bigger club.

Meanwhile, Fluminense wants to encourage a bidding war, with Fulham currently sitting in pole position. Alistair Mackintosh, the club’s CEO, travelled to Brazil to watch Andre and his current side lift the Copa Libertadores in November.
