Fulham have found a replacement for the midfielder they sold to Bayern Munich

Fulham recently finalised a deal to sell their midfielder Joao Palinho to Bayern Munich, but the Gunners didn't have long to grieve about it and have already identified his replacement.

The replacement has been found in Brazil, and if UOL are to be believed, it should be Fluminense midfielder Andre. The 22-year-old is set to leave Latin America this summer and Fulham are set to renew their interest in him.

It is noteworthy that Fluminense were considered for this role back last year, when there was a possibility of Palinha leaving back then, but the Portuguese stayed at Craven Cottage for another year.

It is reported that Fulham have not yet sent a transfer enquiry to Brazil, but it is emphasised that it is only a matter of time.

In the recently started Brazilian championship Andre missed two months due to a knee injury, but has already managed to play 17 matches, in which he gave one assist.
