Fulham keen on new defender as fresh updates on two players emerge

Fulham have been credited with an interest in PSG centre-back El Chadaille Bitshiabu. The Cottagers are one of a few clubs who have been linked with a summer swoop for the youngster.

According to French news outlet Jeunesfooteux, the Whites are keen on luring the defender over to England at the end of this season. However, fellow Premier League side Leeds United have been mentioned along with European teams such as Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen and Red Bull Salzburg.

Bitshiabu, 19, has been on the books at PSG since 2017 and has been a regular for their B team over recent times. He has made also 10 first-team appearances for the Ligue 1 giants alongside the likes of Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé and Neymar.

In other news, Fulham intend to make Manor Solomon’s loan from Shakhtar Donetsk a permanent deal this summer, as per the Evening Standard. The Israel international has been in fine form over recent weeks and has scored some impressive goals against Wolves and Leeds.

Marco Silva’s side are also keen to extend Willian’s contract after his eye catching season to date. The London club took a bit of a gamble on the former Chelsea and Arsenal man following their promotion from the Championship and he has been a breath of fresh air in this campaign.

Football Insider claim Fulham are ‘ready’ to offer him a new deal. The 34-year-old is currently due to become a free agent again in four months.
