Kevin Pedro chooses DR Congo while playing for Fulham
The 23-year-old Fulham winger, who holds Brazilian citizenship, has selected the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Kevin Pedro has chosen the Democratic Republic of Congo, adding an international decision to the profile of the 23-year-old winger currently at Fulham FC. The move gives the left-sided player a clear national-team direction while his recorded citizenship remains Brazilian.
Pedro joined Fulham from Shakhtar Donetsk in the 2025/26 season for €40 million. Shakhtar had signed him from Palmeiras during 2023/24 for €14.8 million, after he moved from Palmeiras Under-20 to the senior Brazilian club in the same season. His earlier step into Palmeiras’ youth structure came from Desportivo Under-20 in 2021/22 for €125,000.
The Fulham player’s current market value is listed at €25 million. His profile identifies him as a left winger, and it also records a metatarsal bruise. No further sporting details accompany the decision, but the choice of DR Congo marks the latest development around a player whose club career has moved through Brazil, Ukraine and England.
Pedro’s selection links his next international path to the Congolese side rather than Brazil, the country attached to his listed citizenship. For Fulham, he remains a 23-year-old wide player under contract at the Premier League club, with his recent transfer history making him one of the more prominent names in this update.
