Fulham are being linked with a number of players as the summer transfer window progresses, with the latest reports indicating interest in West Ham defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka. Our analysis of the past seven days shows the club has been tied to eight possible arrivals and no potential exits. While the hottest storyline right now surrounds Issahaku Fatawu, below are the latest updates on the most important transfer rumours concerning the club.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
On Tuesday, it was reported that Fulham have expressed interest in Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who is expected to be among the first players to leave West Ham following their relegation. According to TEAMtalk, Tottenham, Everton, Newcastle United, and Sunderland are also showing interest. Sources confirmed to TEAMtalk that West Ham are willing to consider offers for the 28-year-old defender as they look to rebuild for the Championship and remove large contracts from their wage bill. It is indicated by sources that the club would likely accept a fee around £10 million. Fulham are attentive to the situation as they assess experienced players with Premier League credentials. The DR Congo international has a contract until 2031.
Solly March
According to a TEAMtalk report on Monday, Fulham is one of several clubs interested in Brighton's English winger Solly March, who is set to become a free agent. The same report indicates that Newcastle United, Everton, Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest, Coventry City and Ipswich Town are also interested in the 31-year-old. His availability follows a period in recent seasons where his playing time was limited due to significant knee injuries.
Arijon Ibrahimović
Fulham, along with Aston Villa, Brighton, Brentford, and Crystal Palace, have conducted extensive scouting of Arijon Ibrahimovic following his loan spell at Heidenheim, as of Saturday. Both Fulham and Brentford have investigated if a transfer would be possible, should Bayern Munich approve another loan or a permanent move. Premier League clubs are aware of the potential to test Bayern's position, as the German club has not excluded another temporary move. According to sources close to the situation, no final decision has been made, and Bayern is expected to evaluate him during pre-season.
Roland Sallai
On Thursday, Fulham became the latest club to pursue Galatasaray's Roland Sallai, who has attracted interest from several Premier League teams. Although Galatasaray has not yet received an official offer, the management has reportedly set a transfer fee expectation of between 15 and 20 million Euro for the 28-year-old Hungarian international. His contract with the club runs until 2028.
Andrej Ilić
According to FootballInsider's Pete O'Rourke last Tuesday, Fulham are interested in Union Berlin's Serbian striker Andrej Ilic. The club has identified Ilic as a potential replacement for Raul Jimenez and an alternative for Rodrigo Muniz. Burnley were linked with a move in January, but now Coventry City and Fulham are also seeking to sign the player. It was also reported last Tuesday that Fulham and Coventry are among several clubs considering a summer transfer for the 26-year-old, whose contract is valid until June 2027.
Issahaku Fatawu
Last Tuesday, it was reported that Abdul Fatawu has a £30 million release clause, with Leicester City reportedly open to accepting offers between £15-20 million. Sunderland, who had a £27 million bid rejected last summer, remain interested, while Fulham, Everton, Brentford, Aston Villa and Bournemouth have also been linked. A report from Sports Boom on Monday stated that Aiyawatt "Top" Srivaddhanaprabha knows he will be forced to sell Fatawu this summer. Fulham are seeking to complete a deal, having identified the 22-year-old forward as a priority target, and Leicester are thought to value him at approximately £20m.
Hayden Hackney
On Sunday, TEAMtalk confirmed that Fulham have undertaken scouting work and analysis on Hayden Hackney over recent months. It is understood that several clubs are monitoring developments as the midfielder’s contract situation enters a crucial phase. An earlier report stated that Manchester United are in the leading position to sign him, ahead of Fulham and Tottenham Hotspur. Fulham have admired Hackney, and Middlesbrough only planned to accept offers for him this summer if they were unsuccessful in their bid for promotion.
