Accordingly, the deal with the Brazilian should soon be official. 23-year-old Fernando moved from Palmeiras to Ukraine in 2018 and was loaned to Sporting Lisbon for six months in 2019.
Fernando played five Champions League games this season, scoring two goals – against Sheriff Tiraspol and against Real Madrid.

Adeyemi transfer to BVB not yet through
However, the transfer of Karim Adeyemi to Borussia Dortmund is shaky. Dortmund, Salzburg and Adeyemi are said to be in agreement in principle, but the parties are still a long way from reaching an agreement on the subject of clauses and bonus payments. That’s why Adeyemi continues to hold talks with Liverpool, PSG and RB Leipzig.
