Fulham are keen to sign AC Milan left-back Fodé Ballo-Touré in the summer window, according to Foot Mercato.
The defender was a backup to Theo Hernandez at the San Siro, where he clocked in 650 minutes from 14 games last season. Despite the limited game time, the report states the player ‘pleases’ Fulham.
His deal lasts until 2025, and it’s claimed the Senegal international could leave the Serie A side in the ‘coming weeks’. He wants to become the first-choice left-back at another club.
Foot Mercato state the fullback is ‘fond of’ the Premier League, where he’s ‘very popular’ at Fulham.
Anthonee Robinson was the main left-back at the London club last season and has drawn attention from a few other clubs. The report states Marco Silva’s side could lose him in this window and his departure would open the door for the 26-year-old to join them.
