Brazilian clubs are reportedly interested in signing Fulham strikers Carlos Vinicius and Rodrigo Muniz.

Despite netting three goals in Monday's win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, the Cottagers are still among the lowest scorers in the top flight.

Marco Silva's side have scored 13 times in as many league games – only the three newly-promoted sides have scored fewer goals this season.

Aleksandar Mitrovic's summer departure to Saudi Arabia has been a key factor behind Fulham's struggles in the final third.

No Fulham player has been able to fill the void left by the Serbia international, who racked up 111 goals in 206 appearances for the Cottagers.

As a result, the West London club are expected to make signing a new centre-forward one of their main priorities for the January transfer window.

With Fulham likely to recruit a new striker in the new year, it raises the question of whether they will consider selling at least one of their current forward options.

According to journalist Eduardo Gabardo, Brazilian clubs are showing an interest in signing Carlos Vinicius and Muniz.

The report claims that current Brasileiro leaders Palmeiras are keen to acquire Carlos Vinicius in the winter window.

With Silva preferring to use Raul Jimenez, Carlos Vinicius has had to settle for just two Premier League starts in the 2023-24 campaign.

The 28-year-old has only scored twice in nine competitive appearances this term, finding the net in a Premier League win over Luton Town and an EFL Cup victory against Norwich City.

Meanwhile, Gremio and Atletico Mineiro are currently keeping tabs on Muniz's situation as they weigh up a potential move.

Muniz has been restricted to just eight appearances this season, with his only goal arriving in Fulham's EFL Cup win over Ipswich Town earlier this month.

Although neither of the two forwards are considered regular starters, it remains to be seen whether Fulham will allow either of them to leave in the January window.
