Andreas Pereira | Fulham player

Do we actually have a sell-on clause?


That has to be nonsense. He has been decent for Fulham but he has not been setting the world alight and he does not fit their business model. Leaving aside that they don't need any more midfielders is that he is too old, they are intent on hoovering up young stars on long contracts for the potential resale value whereas Andreas is a couple of years off turning 30 and his value is only going to decline from here.
 
You just fecking know Woodward didn’t include a sell on clause when we sold him to Fulham.
 
So …. I don’t know if he’d go for it, but my suspicion is Blueco would be looking at him more than Chelsea. I think he would be a very good player to have on a team like Strassbourg, not just to make them more competitive, but to help acclimate the MANY Brazilian players we are purchasing that could be going through there on loan.

In fairness, he could perform a similar function as a role playing midfielder in Chelsea’s squad. How many English, French, Italian speaking players from Brazil or a native Portuguese speaking country do we have with Thiago gone?

Veiga is native Portuguese and speaks like 6 languages, but he could be going out on loan, and isn’t exactly a Senior mentor.
