Nottingham Forest are the latest Premier League side to be credited with an interest in Fluminense midfielder Andre.

We reported over the weekend that Manchester United and Wolves denied any interest in Andre Trindade, with the Brazilian potentially on his way to the Premier League.

Back in July, HITC also reported that Fulham were confident of signing Andre from the South American side but the Cottagers turned their attention to Norwegian Sander Berge from Burnley, with the fee being in the region of £25 million.

The signing of Berge has meant that Fulham have ended their interest in Andre and now Nottingham Forest could be the latest side to enter the race for the Brazilian.

Nottingham Forest keen on Andre Trindade

According to a report from South American outlet Lance, Nuno Espirito Santo’s Forest are the latest side to register their interest in the 24-year-old midfielder.

Fluminense president Mário Bittencourt has said he’ll do everything to find a European club for the player in this window.

He has also stated the Brazil international has received approaches from other clubs after Fulham ended their interest following the signing of Berge.

Forest midfielder Danilo suffered an injury earlier this month and the report says this could be another factor for the Reds to make an approach for his compatriot.

Evangelos Marinakis, Forest’s owner, was reportedly in Brazil to watch the U20 Intercontinental Cup tie between Flamengo and Olympiacos. It is unclear if the Greek owner was in South America to hold talks over a deal for Andre but there seems to be murmurings.

Andre Trindade desperate for Premier League move

Back in January, Andre had been linked with a move to Turkey but HITC reported that the midfielder was desperate to move to the Premier League.

Fulham had agreed terms back then but Joao Palhinha remained at the West London club which meant they couldn’t get a deal over the line for the Brazilian.

With just days to go before the transfer window in England slams shut, surely this will be the time for the Brazilian to finally get his dream move to the Premier League and potentially to a historic club like Forest.
