Fulham defender Terence Kongolo has insisted he still wants a shot at the Premier League, despite leaving Craven Cottage on loan this season.
The defender is currently plying his trade for AC Le Havre in France, having left Fulham in the summer in search of regular playing time and the chance to get his career back on track.
He’s found that with the French side and that’s seen him sit down for an interview with Algemeen Dagblad today to discuss the move and the injury troubles he’s had in recent years.
Kongolo has only ever made four appearances for Fulham since joining them in January 2020, with a series of injuries meaning he never got his shot at Craven Cottage.
A fractured foot suffered on his debut in February of that year saw him spending 174 days on the treatment table and missing 18 games of the season before further injuries limited his game time.
That saw him spend another 157 days out of action, with Fulham eventually electing to send him on loan to France to regain his fitness and hopefully get his career back on track this year.
It means despite two spells with Premier League sides in Fulham and Huddersfield, the defender has only managed 46 appearances in the division, and with his future needing to be sorted this summer as he enters the final year of his deal, he insists he still wants his shot at the big time.
”I’m happy here,” he told the newspaper.
“We will see. I still have some years ahead of me and I still want to make it to the English top. But step by step. The first thing is just staying fit for a long time.
“But as long as I follow God’s path, I know: nothing is impossible. Nothing is impossible anymore.”
