Reports from Demark suggest that Fulham have joined AFC Bournemouth, Everton and Burnley in the race to sign Brøndby goalkeeper Mads Hermansen this summer.
The 22 year-old goalkeeper has made 61 appearances since breaking into the Brøndby first team after German goalkeeper Marvin Schwäbe returned to his homeland to sign for FC Köln in July 2021. Hermansen has impressed in the Champions’ League for Brøndby and was named the club’s player of the season for 2021/22 after a series of strong displays.
Danish football website Bold claims that Fulham are among the frontrunners for Hermansen’s signature, with Bournemouth’s longstanding interest in the goalkeeper undermined by their current battle against the drop. The Whites, on account of their tenth place position in the Premier League, might well be a more attractive destination for the Odense-born custodian, who was named in the Danish senior squad for the first time last month.
Bold reports that there is ‘massive interest’ in Hermansen amongst English clubs – naming the Cherries, Everton and Fulham. Earlier this week, the Daily Mail reported that Burnley boss Vincent Kompany had flown to Denmark to carry out his own personal scouting mission on the young goalkeeper. Fulham are likely to look to boost their goalkeeping resources this summer with Paulo Gazzaniga, currently on loan at Girona, expected to leave the club at the end of his two-year contract.
Hermansen has just two years remaining on his current deal with Drengene fra Vestegnen and is understood be interested his trade in England.
