Duvan Zapata: Fulham Eyes Move for Atalanta's Striker Amidst Eric Dier Inquiry
Fulham eye Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata after Roma move collapses With Aleksandar Mitrovic's departure, Fulham are keen to bolster their attack and aim to sign up to five players before the transfer window closes Stay updated with the summer transfer window on Sky Sports
Fulham are interested in signing Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata.
A proposed move for the Colombia international to join Roma has broken down and Fulham are now considering an approach.
Fulham is considering Zapata as one of the top choices for a new striker, as they sold Aleksandar Mitrovic to the Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal for a club-record fee.
The club aims to secure contracts with up to five players, ensuring the inclusion of at least one winger, one full-back, and in the event of Tosin Adarabioyo's departure, a center-back. Additionally, there is a potential need for a midfielder. Fulham is currently engaged in advanced negotiations with Leicester regarding Timothy Castagne's acquisition. Castagne possesses the ability to operate effectively in both the right and left-back positions.
Fulham has expressed interest in acquiring centre-back Eric Dier from Tottenham and considers him a potential option before the deadline. Tottenham, on the other hand, has shown interest in Adarabioyo, and there have been discussions about a potential player exchange between the two clubs, along with some monetary compensation to Tottenham.
