Andreas Pereira, a midfielder for Fulham, was not able to join his team for their trip to face Tottenham on Sunday. He recently released a statement regarding his absence, expressing deep regret for his unprofessional behavior during a recent interview in Brazil. He clarified that the quotes attributed to him were not accurate and were translated in a misleading and malicious manner.
In the interview, Pereira was quoted by Premier League Brasil saying that he was looking forward to a potential move to Marseille, but unfortunately, it didn't work out. However, he insists that this was not what he actually said. He further explained that he had expressed his happiness and satisfaction with being at Fulham, emphasizing that he still has two years left on his contract and is fully focused on the club.
Pereira took to Instagram to address the situation just before Fulham's match against Tottenham. He requested a retraction of the false quotes and stressed the importance of upholding the truth and ensuring that public discourse is based on facts. He also expressed his gratitude to the club and its staff for everything they have done for him.
Despite Pereira's absence, Fulham managed to draw 1-1 against Tottenham, with Tom Cairney scoring the equalizer after Brennan Johnson had opened the scoring for Spurs. This result leaves Tottenham in seventh place and Fulham in 10th on the Premier League table.
Pereira has been a key player for Fulham this season, starting in 12 Premier League games. His absence was certainly felt by the team, but they were still able to secure a point against a tough opponent. Pereira's statement and his commitment to the club show his professionalism and dedication to Fulham.
