Birkirkara are reportedly closing in on a deal for Sliema Wanderers attacking midfielder Fernandinho, with negotiations between the two clubs already underway.
The Brazilian has attracted interest from several Malta Premier League clubs following an impressive spell with Sliema, but Birkirkara have emerged as serious contenders for his signature.
Sources indicate that Birkirkara have opened talks with Sliema Wanderers and that the Blues are seriously considering the offer on the table.
Fernandinho, who previously played for Floriana and Marsaxlokk, has been one of Sliema’s important attacking players and his performances have attracted renewed attention from clubs competing at the top level of Maltese football.
The 28-year-old Brazilian has experience of Maltese football and could now be on the verge of another move within the Premier League.
With negotiations progressing, the coming days could prove decisive. Should an agreement be reached, Fernandinho would become another significant addition to a Birkirkara squad with ambitious plans for the new campaign.
For Sliema, the potential departure would represent the loss of an important attacking option, while Birkirkara would secure a player already familiar with the demands of the Maltese top flight.
Malta Sport understands that Birkirkara are closing in on Fernandinho, with talks continuing between the clubs.
