Despite Fulham’s great return to the Premier League, Marco Silva will not want to rest on his laurels and will try to improve the squad at his disposal.
One of the areas where he looks particularly keen to add some firepower is in attack, and it appears the Portuguese is eyeing up an Argentine winger, according to Mundo Deportivo.
That man is Lucas Ocampos, who didn’t have the best first half of the season on loan at Ajax, and was glad to return to Sevilla, where he is now wanted by Fulham.
The Spanish newspaper bring the information in an article explaining the La Liga side need to make some money this summer, and new director of football Victor Orta is exploring various possibilities.
One of those is the sale of Ocampos, but it’s said Fulham are ‘very far’ from what Sevilla are asking for as they aim to ‘make an offer of €15m’.
This is a fee the Spaniards ‘do not contemplate’, and it’s then stated the player himself ‘doesn’t want to leave’ after his terrible experience at Ajax, where he was meant to be the replacement for Antony.
