Man Utd midfielder to join London club

Manchester United midfielder Andreas Pereira looks set to join Fulham on a permanent deal this summer.

The Cottagers recently agreed a fee of £11m for the midfielder, but it was unclear whether Pereira would accept the move.

It is now reported that the Brazilian has been convinced to join the west Londoners, and he is set to sign a three-year deal.

Pereira graduated through the United youths, but has never been able to establish himself as a regular starter with the club.

He showed promise at the beginning of the 2019/2020 season, but barely played after the arrival of Bruno Fernandes.

The 26-year-old recently had a productive year-long loan at Flamengo, and now has the chance to prove himself in England.

Crystal Palace have also been linked with him lately, but manager Marco Silva has persuaded him to move to Fulham.

Pereira has reportedly been assured a regular starting position, and the onus is on him to cement his spot for the long-term.
