Fulham have reportedly reached a verbal agreement with Shakhtar Donetsk over the signing of Brazilian winger Kevin Macedo, in a deal worth up to €50 million.

According to journalist Aarón Ramiro, the London club will pay an initial €45 million, with a further €5 million tied to performance-related bonuses.

If finalised, the move would make Kevin the fourth most expensive sale in Shakhtar’s history — just behind Mykhailo Mudryk’s record-breaking €70 million transfer to Chelsea in the 2022/23 season, Fred’s €59 million switch to Manchester United in 2018/19, and Alex Teixeira’s €50 million move to Jiangsu Suning in 2015/16.

The Ukrainian club only signed Kevin in January 2024 from Palmeiras for €12 million. But the 21-year-old has quickly made an impression, scoring four goals and providing two assists in just three appearances this season for the Miners.
