O Chelsea wants to hire Brazilian midfielder Andreas Pereira (ex-Flamengo) to replace the possible departure of midfielder Mason Mount. The information is from the English newspaper Daily Mail.
Talks between Chelsea and Mount over a possible contract extension have cooled and there is a strong possibility that the England midfielder will leave Stamford Bridge for free. Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City have shown interest in the player.
Thus, Andreas Pereira appears as a possible replacement, but the Blues will have to face competition from Atlético de Madrid and Paris Saint Germain for the player’s transfer from Fulham.
The Brazilian has been having a good season, having scored three goals and distributed six assists – only five players in the Premier League have more goal passes – in 32 games.
Fulham stipulates a value between 25 and 35 million pounds (R$ 161 million to R$ 225 million, at current prices) for the athlete and his continuity at the club should depend on the permanence of coach Marco Silva, considered one of those responsible for his good performances.
