Following a strong start to the season, Espanyol's 24-year-old Spanish forward Roberto Fernández has attracted attention from clubs in the Premier League and Serie A. The most interested party from the Premier League is newly promoted Hull City, a club that has already spent over 100 million euros this transfer window and seems willing to invest further to strengthen its attack. From Serie A, both Fiorentina and Como are also interested in the player. Como is reportedly seeking another forward to partner Moise Kean for their upcoming Champions League campaign.

Fernández has a release clause of 25 million euros. The former Spain U21 international has 6 caps and 2 goals at that level. He joined Espanyol in July 2025 and is under contract until 2031. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €10.00m.
