90 min claim that Fulham are hopeful of beating Tottenham Hotspur and several other clubs to the signing of Fluminense midfielder Andre Trindade.
The youngster, known simply as ‘Andre’, has made waves since first breaking into Fluminese’s starting eleven back in 2020, with the defensive midfielder emerging as one of the most consistent performers in the Brazilian top flight over the last 12 months.

The 22-year-old won his first senior cap for the Selecao against Senegal last month and it now appears that a move to Europe might be just around the corner for the player.
Spurs are in the race for Andre with other PL clubs
90 min claim that Tottenham are of the clubs who have already spoken to Andre’s representatives about a transfer but the North London club are thought to be facing competition from the likes of Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Liverpool, Arsenal, and West Ham for the midfielder.
However, the report states that it is Fulham who are now leading the race for the Fluminense midfielder, with the Cottagers said to be hopeful of sealing the transfer.
It is explained that the West London club came close to signing Andre for just under £20m back in January but would now have to pay close to £25m to snap him up.
Spurs Web Opinion
Signing players straight from South American football is always a big risk as there is no guarantee that they would adapt to the demands of the top European leagues.
English football can be a particularly unforgiving landing spot for young Brazilians, with very few managing to hit the ground running in the Premier League.
