Fulham return with improved £35m bid for Shakhtar winger Kevin

Fulham have submitted an improved bid for 22-year-old Shakhtar Donetsk winger Kevin.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the package is worth around £35 million and an additional £5-10 million in add-ons.

“Fulham submit new official bid to sign Brazilian winger Kevin from Shakhtar Donetsk. Understand proposal worth €37m plus add-ons while Shakhtar insist on €50m request for their gem” – Fabrizio Romano

The young Brazilian winger is certainly a hot prospect and one Shakhtar clearly do not want to let go too easily.

Shakhtar are insisting that a bid of around £50 million would be enough to sell their gem of a winger.

It is clear that Fulham are more tempted by Kevin than Reiss Nelson (25), and it shows some good intent by the owners, who have failed to show true desire in the window.
