Fulham midfielder Andreas Pereira has indicated his interest in making a January move to French outfit Marseille, according to reports in the Brazilian press.
The Brazilian international, who returned to the national team after a six-year break largely on account of his form at Craven Cottage, openly discussed his disappointment that offers from the Ligue 1 side and Nottingham Forest were rejected in the summer – but seemed to leave the door open to a potential exit.
Pereira said:
“From outside [England] arrived [an offer] from Marseille. We talked, and unfortunately it didn’t work. In the last few days [of the summer window], also [there was interest] from Nottingham Forest. “From outside [England] arrived [an offer] from Marseille. We talked, and unfortunately it didn’t work.

“As I was on vacation, I was more in contact with him [Giuliano Bertolucci, Pereira’s agent]. But he always warns me, telling me: ‘Look, there’s an interested club, let’s see what happens’. It would be very cool [to go to Marseille], the way [Roberto] De Zerbi plays soccer. I was watching it with good eyes, but let’s see now in January or at the end of the season if there will be a transfer or if I will stay at Fulham. “Sometimes, I see something and I get excited to talk to him [Bertolucci]. I ask, ‘Is this happening and you know?’ And he always says no. I think: ‘Damn, it’s complicated.’”
Someone pick h up and drive him to the airport now. Don’t want him to miss his flight.
He’s been a weak link for quite sometime and it always felt that he was non=committal regarding his performances and it showed, when he threw his toys out of the pram ,regarding who’s the penalty taker. I’m sure Josh King could do a better job than that spoilt brat.
Silva has picked him even when not at his best and been very loyal to him. Fulham gave him chance when his career had stalled. To mouth off halve way through a season when playing regularly is a lack of respect. He thinks he’s better than he is. Hopefully we can get replacement a fee and get rid some don’t know how lucky they are
Maybe Man Utd knew something we did not never fully committed and thinks he is better than he is hope we don’t get a penalty against Spurs if so he will belly ache and moanif he don’t take it, when he goes at last somebody else will take corners and free kicks
This is fine.
Shouldn’t be allowed to wear a Fulham shirt again. Arrogant, petulant and not as good as he thinks he is. Prima Donna springs to mind. Hopefully, he can be offloaded in January for whatever we can get for him. Good riddance.
Please please please let him go.
I am with Darren here !! You can leave !!.You can be easily replaced!!!.Do not let the door hit you when you leave.
What a piece of crap. I was always the one to defend him when his performances were below par, not anymore. Big headed and quite mediocre
