Fulham target now ‘close to leaving’ his club – Whites are ‘pressing’ for his signing

Even though Fulham’s interest in Fiorentina centre-back Igor seems to have cooled down a little lately, today there’s an interesting story coming from TuttoMercatoWeb.

The outlet features a piece claiming the 25-year-old ‘now seems to be close to leaving’ the Serie A side.

When speaking of the interested clubs, TuttoMercatoWeb claims there are two clubs who are ‘most pressing’ for the signing. Those are Fulham and Villarreal.

Even though Nice had previously been linked to Igor, the outlet sounds pretty sure it’s the Whites and the Yellow Submarines who push harder at this time, and ‘there may be news in the next few days’.

The links between Fulham and Igor have been on since the start of May, when it was first claimed that the West London side have been ‘making concrete moves’ for the signing. A couple of weeks ago, it was even claimed the player already spoke to Marco Silva for the transfer.

What seemed to have slowed down the chase is that the Whites also have AS Roma’s Roger Ibañez as a target and are only likely to move for one of them. And although recent reports said there was an advance for the Giallorossi player, TuttoMercatoWeb now make it sound like the Fiorentina defender – who would be cheaper – wasn’t forgotten.

Josh Koroma revelation emerges at Huddersfield Town

The forward is soon to be out of contract, but was reportedly spotted at the club’s training ground recently.

Huddersfield Town know that boss Neil Warnock will remain at the club this summer after the 74-year-old put pen to paper on a new contract at the club recently.

However, they unfortunately cannot say the same for forward Josh Koroma at this stage.

What is Josh Koroma’s current contract situation at Huddersfield Town?

Koroma joined Huddersfield Town in July 2019, with his last contract extension coming last summer.

A one-year extension was triggered last June, which means that Koroma’s current contract at Huddersfield Town expires this summer.

Technically, with contracts tending to end on June 30th, Koroma, unless a new deal has been signed behind the scenes and not announced, would now be a free agent.

What is the latest news on Josh Koroma’s future?

However, there is still some hope yet according to the latest update on the situation provided by media local to the club.

Indeed, football writer Steven Chicken, in a Huddersfield Town Q and A on YorkshireLive, when asked about Koroma’s future hinted that no news could be good news, as well as revealing that he recently spotted Koroma at the club’s training ground.

“Privately, I wasn’t particularly hopeful either, but I think no news has been good news on this one – he could easily have agreed a move elsewhere if he weren’t interested in staying.” Chicken wrote on YorkshireLive, regarding Koroma.

“I know there were reports last weekend linking him with a couple of other clubs, but that information had been knocking about for a few weeks and seemingly come to nothing.

“Watch this space!

“I can tell you he was one of a group of players I saw at the training ground on Tuesday, for what that’s worth.”

Which clubs have been linked with a move for Josh Koroma?

Whilst it is certainly an interesting revelation that Koroma has been spotted at the training ground recently, unfortunately for Huddersfield, they are not the only club interested in getting him to sign a contract at the moment.

Indeed, they are in a scramble with two other sides, according to a report last week from Alan Nixon.

Nixon claims that fellow Championship rivals Millwall and Plymouth are also keen on a deal for Koroma.

Millwall boss Gary Rowett sees Koroma as a potential arrival at The Den if indeed Tyler Burey joins Oxford United.
