Fulham’s pursuit for AS Roma’s Justin Kluivert now gets very positive updates from the Italian media.

Tutto Mercato Web turns up to say that the player is ‘one step away’ from completing his move to Craven Cottage.

The website claims that following a positive response from the player, negotiations between Fulham and Roma have ‘practically been unlocked’ in the last few hours.

The agreement between the clubs is now said to be ‘close’, with Kluivert joining the Whites on loan with a right to buy. That clause, which is set to be worth €12m, would automatically be triggered depending on a number of performances for the Premier League side this season.

Earlier today, the Italian media had already reported that the player had said yes to a Fulham move. Even though clubs from other countries had also been interested in signing him, it was repeatedly claimed that the Whites would have an advantage by offering him the chance of playing in the Premier League, besides the financial power to cover the salary he has at Roma.
