Despite claims that a deal between AS Monaco and Fulham for Tosin Adarabioyo was close, everything then went very quiet.

The 25-year-old has made it clear he wants to leave Craven Cottage this summer, and the principality side looked to have won the race for his services this summer.

Rest assured, it isn’t dead, as Nice-Matin make it clear on Thursday that everything is going to plan over at the Ligue 1 side, who will still buy the Fulham player.

It’s explained that the deal to take Adarabioyo to Monaco is ‘still relevant’ and could even ‘quickly take place’.

What appears to have slowed it all down is Monaco’s insistence to get the transfer of Denis Zakaria over the line this summer, as they have been battling West Ham for the Switzerland international’s signature.

With that now seemingly done and out of the way, there is a far better chance that Fulham will get the sale they want, and the player will finally be able to leave Craven Cottage one year before the end of his contract there.
