Fulham have approached Chelsea over the possibility of signing midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall this summer.
Marco Silva wants to add bodies to his engine room ahead of the new Premier League campaign and the former Leicester City midfielder is keen to play more regular football after his career has stagnated somewhat since his £30 million to Stamford Bridge in July 2024.
The 26 year-old has made just 36 first-team appearances, scoring five goals, in his first year with Chelsea and is not likely to be a regular starter under Enzo Maresca this term. Dewsbury-Hall, who played 129 senior games for Leicester after coming through the Foxes’ youth set-up, has been a long-term Fulham target but the near neighbours are some way apart regarding their valuations of the box-to-box man, who has Conference League experience with both of his former clubs.
Chelsea are said to want more than the £30 million they paid Leicester for Dewsbury-Hall’s services if they are to sell him, so a loan with an option to buy looks more likely at this stage.
Think 30m fair asking prise good player 26 with best years in front of him you don’t get quality for less theses days
With JP looking to to go to the north London whites then this wouldn’t be a bad move. But I think it maybe not the transfer cost but wages that may be the problem.
Don’t get me wrong but the stupid money some teams are paying is ruining football and as the the Saudi teams then the money is just wrecking the game.
Who’s JP?
Agree with Daniel and get rid of Pereira to help fund it.
I think it would be a god signing and a player the right side of 30
I was gutted when we did not get him from Leicester but he is still a class player it seems from the Media that JP does not have his heart with FFC if that is true then let him go and try to sign Dewsbury- Hall.
Sign him if under 30 million younger than JP no obviously does not want to play for us preferring other options. Also concur part paid for it by selling Pereira
