Fulham look to Italy’s third division – Contact made over scouting appointment

Italian scout Davide Donè is in talks with Fulham, if claims coming out of Italy are to be believed.

Donè is without a club after stepping down from his position as chief scout at third division Italian side, Cavese 1919. He joined the Serie C side in June 2019 before leaving them last October.

Prior to his spell at Cavese 1919, he worked as a scout for Spezia Calcio between July 2017 and June 2018, after spending 10 months at another Serie C side, Como.

TuttoMercatoWeb brings the latest update on Donè being approached by the Cottagers.

It’s claimed the Premier League club would have had ‘contact’ with the talent identifier, with the idea of him joining their scouting team. That’s about the only information TMW have about Fulham’s approach for him.

Donè completed ‘The FA Talent Identification Level ’ course in December 2019.

Should Scott Parker’s side end up appointing the Italian, Donè will have an opportunity to work at the highest level, after spending time in the lower divisions of Italy.
