Fulham’s summer transfer window appears to be a bustling hub of activity, as reported by The Standard. The departure of Joao Palhinha to Bayern Munich has left a notable void in the Cottagers’ midfield, prompting them to renew their interest in Fluminense’s £25 million-rated midfielder, Andre. This strategic push indicates Fulham’s proactive approach in reinforcing their squad following a significant club-record sale.
Andre, a 23-year-old Brazilian international, first captured Fulham’s attention last August. The club’s consistent engagement with his representatives over the past year underscores their commitment to securing his services. Andre’s potential arrival could be a critical element in Fulham’s strategy to build a team capable of competing at higher levels in the Premier League.

In addition to Andre, Fulham is keeping their options open with Manchester United’s Scott McTominay. However, the focal point of their offensive in the transfer market seems to be Arsenal’s Emile Smith Rowe. Despite a rejected initial bid of £25 million, Fulham’s persistence reflects their intent to inject youthful vigour and versatility into their lineup. Arsenal’s openness to negotiate Smith Rowe’s departure could eventually play in Fulham’s favour, as they seem ready to enhance their offer.
The summer transfer window presents a crucial period for Fulham to solidify their midfield and overall squad capabilities. By targeting players like Andre and Smith Rowe, Fulham is not only looking to replace Palhinha but also aiming to ascend in the competitive hierarchy of the Premier League. Their calculated moves in this transfer window will be pivotal in defining their trajectory for the upcoming season.
