AS Roma could be set for transfer tussle with Fulham – Both want same midfielder

Fulham and AS Roma are in the picture to sign Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips in the summer window.

The midfielder has struggled to feature regularly since moving to the Etihad in July 2022. He went out on loan to West Ham United in the winter market and his situation didn’t improve a lot in London.

Wednesday’s edition of Corriere della Sera indicates Fulham and the Serie A side could open their doors for the 28-year-old.

Roma are looking to strengthen their midfield and they are keen on signing Enzo Le Fée, who wants to join them at all costs. Rennes are in talks with the Giallorossi to find a solution that will satisfy all parties.

Corriere della Sera state that Roma are also interested in Phillips.

It’s claimed Roma would face competition from other clubs, including Marco Silva’s side, who are ‘at the forefront’ to sign the Englishman.

The Citizens, for their part, would be looking to sell Phillips, and Fulham and Roma could battle it out for his signature this summer.
