Manchester United approach Fluminense midfielder Andre

Casemiro future remains uncertain at club after poor form this season

According to FootballTransfers, Manchester United have submitted an effort for Andre, a midfielder for Fluminense, amid rumours that Casemiro may be leaving the team next year.

Although no formal offer has been made as of yet, Premier League teams have discussed a potential move for the 22-year-old with the Copa Libertadores champions.

The Brazilian intends to go to Europe in January after leaving his native nation. Although there have been rumours that Fulham was the front-runner to recruit the young player, it has been discovered that they are just one of several teams who have expressed interest.

Given Sir Jim Ratcliffe's impending 25% takeover of Ineos, Man Utd's immediate recruiting future appears unknown. However, we have learned that Red Devils officials have expressed interest in Fluminense over a potential move.

Due to his poor performance this season, there have been rumours that Casemiro may be willing to move to the Saudi Pro League to finish off his career, which would free up space for Andre.

Liverpool have since lost interest in Andre and moved on to other prospects. The Brazilian international has been connected to the Reds for a while, but the team told him they are now considering other options.

Brazilian media outlets have named Fulham as the front-runners, although sources tell us that Fluminense has not received any proposals as of yet, except those made during the summer window. Currently, the club is hoping to sell for between €30 and €40 million.

The fact that the deadline of January is still a few months away has also been emphasised, and more players may be going to show up for Andre's signature.
