Arthur Avom, a 21-year-old Cameroonian international central midfielder, has decided not to extend his contract with FC Lorient, which expires this summer, making him a free agent. Several French clubs, including Rennes and Strasbourg, are monitoring his situation. However, the most significant interest appears to be from England, where there is strong competition for the midfielder. Everton, Crystal Palace, and Leeds United had previously pursued him in the winter, and Fulham is also showing interest. Furthermore, Africafoot reports that Sunderland has reportedly started discussions to gain an advantage over competing clubs. Avom, who joined Lorient in July 2024, has 14 caps and one goal for Cameroon. His current market value is €15.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
