New club keen to sign Fulham star – Craven Cottage transfer demands may spoil their plans

Olympique Marseille are interested in Fulham’s Antonee Robinson, according to reports from France.

It’s Foot Mercato who today features a story saying the Ligue 1 side are expected to sign at least three fullbacks this summer, and the Whites’ player is one of them.

The article, however, highlights how difficult it should be to take Robinson from Fulham in this transfer window.

They admit that ‘the track may not succeed’. The first reason is Robinson’s price, since he’s wanted by the likes of Manchester City, Inter Milan and Milan, so that auction makes it all harder.

Then there’s also the fact that Fulham are actually interested in keeping the 25-year-old in their squad. It’s said they’d like to extend his current contract, which expires in 2024.

Foot Mercato doesn’t say if there’s a price to take Robinson out of Craven Cottage this summer. The left-back is currently valued by Transfermarkt at €15m.

Featuring for Marco Silva’s side this season, he made 38 appearances, with his consistency being important for a team that proved to have big potential in their Premier League campaign.
