Fluminense midfielder Andre Trindade admits he's a fan of Manchester United veteran Casemiro.

Fulham are regarded as favourites to land Andre, though he is now being linked with United in Brazil.

He told ESPN Brasil: “I didn't know about (United's interest). And I also don't think anything came of it.

“We're in November, there's the final stretch of the Brazilian Championship, there's the World Cup, but I'm very happy.

“Casemiro is a guy who has a huge career, I try to talk to him a lot when I'm with the national team.

“He's a person who gives me a lot of advice, he's a great leader and all I can do is continue playing well and I'm happy with all these surveys and comments."
