Fulham Eye Man City's Bobb in £35M Deal
20 Jan
Summary
- Fulham are in talks to sign Oscar Bobb from Man City for £35 million.
- Bobb, sidelined by injury, seeks consistent first-team minutes.
- Borussia Dortmund also shows interest in the highly-rated winger.
Fulham is actively pursuing Manchester City's talented winger, Oscar Bobb, with a £35 million transfer deal reportedly in the works. Bobb, who committed to a long-term contract with City in February 2024, has had his season significantly disrupted by a severe Achilles injury.
His path to the first team at Manchester City has been blocked by established stars like Phil Foden and Jeremy Doku, further compounded by recent arrivals. This situation has made City open to his departure.
Fulham, despite earlier summer signings, aims to strengthen its attacking options. However, they face potential competition for Bobb from German club Borussia Dortmund, although no formal offer has been made yet.
For Fulham, signing Bobb would underline their ambition to climb the Premier League table. Currently 11th and within reach of European qualification spots, the Cottagers are eager to secure a player who could bolster their quest for continental competition.
