Anticipating the approaching January window, Fulham actively seeks to fortify its midfield with a new defensive maestro, especially considering the looming interest from Bayern Munich in Joao Palhinha. Despite a summer pursuit of Scott McTominay to fill this role, Fulham faces the reality that the Manchester United midfielder is unlikely to depart mid-season.
The defensive strategy extends beyond the midfield, as Fulham, in the wake of uncertainties surrounding Tosin’s future, continues the quest for a robust center-back. Tosin’s contract expiration next summer adds urgency, with the player free to engage in pre-contract discussions with foreign clubs.
