Benjamin Lecomte, at 34 years old, leaves Montpellier, which was relegated to Ligue 2 at the end of last season. His high salary was no longer in line with MHSC's situation, especially since the goalkeeper lost his place in several matches last year. Officially, Benjamin Lecomte signs with Fulham for two seasons. The club confirmed the signing from the French club Montpellier, and he is expected to take on a role as the number 2 goalkeeper.

According to journalist Bertrand Queneutte, Benjamin Lecomte is expected to leave Montpellier and join Fulham as a number 2 goalkeeper. He is anticipated to arrive in England on Monday. The transfer will bring in around 500,000 euros for Montpellier and will relieve the club of one of its highest salaries.
