Fulham enter Youssef En-Nesyri chase

Fulham will reportedly look to sign 27-year-old Moroccan international Youssef En-Nesyri from Turkish Super Lig club Fenerbahce in the summer transfer window.

According to a report by Turkish outlet Fotomac, Youssef En-Nesyri is the subject of interest from Fulham. The Cottagers are scouring the market for a striker heading into the summer transfer window due to Raul Jimenez’s advancing age and Rodrigo Muniz’s recent injury. So, they have set their sights on the 27-year-old Fenerbahce centre-forward

Youssef En-Nesyri and his fruitful Fenerbahce spell

Youssef En-Nesyri has been one of the most productive strikers in Europe in the last few seasons. The African attacker rose in prominence during his spell with CD Leganes before seeing his stock skyrocket in his four-year stint with Sevilla. He was also instrumental in Morocco’s run to the 2022 FIFA World Cup semi-finals.

The 27-year-old has been exceptional since joining Fenerbahce from Sevilla last summer, continuing his productive output. En-Nesyri has contributed to 34 goals in 49 appearances across all competitions, finding the back of the net 27 times while providing seven assists.

Meanwhile, En-Nesyri’s progress at Fenerbahce has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe. Premier League outfits, in particular, are keen on signing the Moroccan international, with Fulham among the prospective suitors vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.

London calling?

Fulham’s interest in Youssef En-Nesyri is understandable. The Cottagers are scouring the market for a striker heading into the summer transfer window. Rodrigo Muniz is on the sidelines due to a hamstring injury, while Raul Jimenez is on the wrong side of 30 and approaching the twilight of his career.

In addition, Carlos Vinicius will likely depart from Craven Cottage in the summer transfer window. So, several candidates, including Timo Werner, have emerged on Fulham’s radar, with En-Nesyri also a viable target for the West London outfit. However, it will be surprising if the Cottagers have a straightforward run at the African attacker.

While the 27-year-old Moroccan international is reportedly ready to leave Fenerbahce, the prolific striker is a target for several well-known clubs. So, it will be interesting to see if Fulham can beat the competition to En-Nesyri’s signature in the summer transfer window.

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for the Fulham manager Marco Silva in recent weeks.

The 47-year-old manager has done an impressive job at Fulham, and he has been linked with a move to the North London club. Silva is reportedly on the radar of Saudi Arabian clubs as well.

Marco Silva open to Saudi move

The manager has now opened doors to a potential move to Saudi Arabia by claiming that he could consider moving to the Saudi Pro League in future.

It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can convince him to stay in the Premier League. According to Football Insider, they are among the front-runners to secure his services.

Silva said: “I don’t close doors to something like that, I’m not saying I won’t work outside of Europe, it can happen in the future.”

The North London club will need to replace Ange Postecoglou in the summer after a disappointing season. The 47-year-old could prove to be the ideal appointment. He has shown his quality in the Premier League over the years, and there is no doubt that he’s good enough to manage Tottenham.

They have a quality squad at their disposal, and they could easily bounce back next year with the right manager. It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few weeks.

Spurs have been linked with multiple managers in recent weeks, and it will be interesting to see who they end up with.

The opportunity to manage Tottenham will be exciting for Silva, and he will get to work with top-quality players at the North London club. Tottenham will be desperate to bounce back after a disappointing season, and it remains to be seen whether he can help them end their wait for a trophy.
