Fulham have announced Willian and Carlos Vinicius will leave the club following the expiration of their contracts at the end of the month.
Willian, who rejoined the Cottagers earlier this year on a free, will end a third spell at Craven Cottage having made 79 appearances for them since his debut in 2022.
Striker Vinicius also bids farewell having been surplus to requirements in west London, with him being third choice behind Raul Jimenez and Rodrigo Muniz.
Captain Tom Cairney, who was linked with a free transfer to newly-promoted Sky Bet Championship club Wrexham, has been offered a new deal by the club alongside Kenny Tete, who manager Marco Silva is interested in keeping at right-back.
Youth players Luc De Fougerolles, Callum Osmand and Lemar Gordon have also been offered deals to extend their time at Fulham.

Willian departs after a third spell at Craven Cottage, bringing his total number of appearances for the Club to 79.
Over the last three years, the experienced winger scored 10 times and laid on seven assists, playing a valuable role in helping Fulham record three consecutive mid-table finishes.
His immaculate strike against Nottingham Forest in 2022/23 ended up winning Goal of the Season, while he also netted incredibly memorable goals against Leeds, Chelsea and Wolves.
Carlos Vinicius arrived on deadline day at the beginning of our first season back in the Premier League.
His first goal in black and white will forever be fondly remembered by fans, as his header clinched a 2-1 victory over Chelsea in January 2023 – our first victory over our neighbours in 17 years.
Another key contribution followed the next season when he bagged the winner against Luton Town within minutes of coming off the bench, before he joined Galatasary on loan for the second half of the campaign.
Vini – a lively presence around the Training Ground – departs with 11 goal involvements (8G, 3A) in 52 Fulham appearances.
We would like to thank all the players leaving us this summer for their efforts during their time at the Club, and wish them all the very best of luck in their next chapters.
