Fulham are considering a January move for Manchester City midfielder James McAtee, according to the Daily Mail.
The England under-21 international is seeking more regular first-team football having had to make do with sporadic substitute appearances under Pep Guardiola this term despite being promised the opportunity to break into the champions’ first-team squad last summer. The Salford-born attacking midfielder has made just ten appearances, scoring his first senior goal as a substitute in the Champions’ League against Slovan Bratislava, but has asked his representatives to explore opportunities for a move away from his boyhood club.
Fulham and West Ham United have held a long-term interest in McAtee, who has only eighteen months left on his City contract. The Mail suggests that McAtee might be a potential replacement for Andreas Pereira, but the Whites are insistent that they will not be selling the Brazilian international this month unless they receive an offer substantially greater than the £16.5m offer rejected by Palmeiras yesterday.
McAtee has also attracted interest from German pair Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund as well as Brentford and Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.
replacement for pereira?? so would my granny.
Don’t know the player. Under 21 so I am assuming he’s pretty good. Not too difficult to make an improvement.????
The fingers crossed imoji translated as. ????
After watching our awful game against Ipswich we ca n forget about Europe, this 3at the back is not working we were far too slow and all the possession we had is useless with no end product. So many mistakes and we need at least 3 new signings ESR can’t head a ball I think ne must have a pointed head we need a striker a right back and a centre back in this window.
