Nantes have identified Issa Diop as a target to strengthen their defense in an effort to avoid relegation. The 28-year-old Franco-Moroccan defender, who has only made four Premier League appearances this season, is one of the options being considered by the club. However, Nantes' interest has reportedly decreased recently due to the transfer fee set by Fulham. Transfermarkt values the former Toulouse player at 10 million euros, and he earns an annual salary of 4,121,848 euros in London. His contract with Fulham is set to run until the summer of 2027. Diop joined Fulham in August 2022 and has been capped 6 times for the France U21 national team.
