West Ham and Fulham ready to meet USA international's asking price – Player keen on transfer
In the summer transfer window, Sport Witness extensively covered West Ham's interest in Yunus Musah. A deal didn't progress then but it can next summer, with Fulham also emerging as a suitor.
Instead of the Hammers, Musah ended up joining Atalanta on loan from AC Milan.
So far in all competitions, the versatile midfielder has played only 674 minutes. He was left on the bench on Wednesday, as Atalanta achieved a historic Champions League comeback against Borussia Dortmund.
That, in a nutshell, defines Musah's situation. He is now likely to return to Milan in the summer. West Ham and Fulham are already keeping a close eye on his situation.
West Ham and Fulham big on transfer
MilanLive report about the 23-year-old, with Atalanta convinced about sending him back to the San Siro.
This will leave Milan with a problem on their hands. No other clubs have come forward for him so far but that will change in the summer. The Rossoneri want only €20m to sell him and Fulham and West Ham are willing to meet that asking price. Napoli can also do that, having previously tried to land him.
There is also a warning about interest from Turkey, where Besiktas are keen.
In the meantime, Musah is very keen on seeking a new challenge. He is likely to be interested in a move to England, even if staying in Italy would be his priority.
Yunus Musah presents versatile option
The USA international has mainly been used in midfield at Atalanta but that isn't the best representation of his qualities.
That was seen more at Milan, where he played across the pitch. He also filled in at right-back, which is where he has also played for the national team many times. At times, Musah also played on the flanks and as an attacking midfielder.
This could make him a utility signing for West Ham and Fulham. He is only 23-years-of-age and only needs the right environment to thrive. He has previously played for England's youth teams and qualifies as a homegrown player for the Premier League after spending multiple years in Arsenal's youth system.

Paul Merson and Chris Sutton make Fulham vs Tottenham predictions as Tudor 'blaming' claim made
A look at the pundit predictions for the London clash between Fulham and Tottenham.
Fulham and Tottenham face off in a London derby on Sunday, and the pressure will be on for one of these two teams at Craven Cottage. Things are going well for Fulham, who are three points off the European spots after a big away win over Sunderland last time out.
But it is a very different story for Tottenham, who are currently just four points above the bottom three and with new interim boss Igor Tudor getting off to a nightmare start. Tudor saw his new team thrashed by rivals Arsenal last weekend, and it feels as though there is a recipe for disaster in the mix.
Tudor and Spurs must rip up that recipe and put relegation worries behind them with a positive run of results, but Fulham will be a tough nut to crack, especially at the Cottage. Ahead of the game, we have rounded up the predictions from BBC Sport's Chris Sutton and SportsKeeda's Paul Merson.
Paul Merson
"I've played a lot of derbies against Tottenham and seen many of these matches after I left Arsenal. In terms of the gulf between the two teams, I've not seen anything like the past two games! That's what worries me about Spurs. I don't expect them to be relegated, but they are 100 per cent involved in the race with Forest and West Ham. I'd be shocked if they went down. They have the best stadium in the Premier League. Imagine that venue hosting Championship matches.
"If Tottenham had Chelsea's fixtures until the end of the season, they would be relegated! And if Chelsea had Spurs' fixtures, they would qualify for Champions League. So at least Tottenham have the kind of fixtures where they can play their way out of this mess.
"I don't see anything but a Fulham win here. I just don't see how Tottenham turn it around in this game. London derby, massive pressure on Spurs. I think Fulham playing without any pressure will help them win. Prediction: Fulham 2-1 Tottenham Hotspur."
Chris Sutton
"The Tudor times have not started well for Tottenham under Igor Tudor. It's been a classic case of a manager coming in and being bullish in his first press conference, saying he is 100% sure they will stay up - then losing his first game and letting loose on the previous manager, saying things like the players aren't fit.
"I thought it was an astonishing attack on Thomas Frank, because by saying Spurs' players are "a good group with bad habits", Tudor is totally blaming him for everything. We know Tudor is a short-term specialist but what does that actually mean about him as a manager? It is OK going in and shoring clubs up for a few games, but why does he keep losing his job after that?
"I don't think this is an easy game for him after his side were outclassed in the north London derby. Fulham won well at Sunderland last time out and they look full of confidence. Their home record is good and they've already beaten Spurs once this season - there's a good chance they will beat them again. Prediction: 2-1."

Preview: Fulham vs Tottenham Hotspur - prediction, team news, lineups
Travelling Tottenham Hotspur supporters will be praying that the 10th time is the charm when they continue their Premier League campaign away to Fulham in Sunday's London derby.
The Lilywhites have failed to win any of their nine top-flight matches in 2026 following last weekend's 4-1 drubbing against Arsenal, whereas the Cottagers prevailed 3-1 over Sunderland in gameweek 27.
Match preview
The toughest test imaginable awaited Igor Tudor on his Premier League baptism - a test made even tougher thanks to Tottenham's perpetual injury crisis, although the home crowd experienced 30 minutes of joy against their league-leading North London rivals.
Randal Kolo Muani capitalised on another Gunners gaffe to cancel out Eberechi Eze's opener before half time, but Spurs soon lost their way in the second half, where frequent Tottenham tormentor Eze struck a second for himself in between Viktor Gyokeres's two efforts.
Tudor was under no illusions that the better team won in the North London derby, where there was unsurprisingly no immediate new manager bounce for the Europa League winners, whose top-flight status remains under serious threat as they lie 16th in the Premier League table.
While 19 clubs in the division have won at least one league game in 2026, Tottenham have endured an appalling start to 2026 and could now equal their longest Premier League winless run of 10 matches, set under Ossie Ardiles in 1994.
An away day has proven more fruitful than a home affair for Spurs this season, though, as the Lilywhites have taken 19 of their 29 Premier League points on rival turf this season and have scored twice in three of their last four games on the road in all competitions.
Speaking of teams netting multiple goals away from home, Fulham have coincidentally done so exactly three times in their last four road trips too, most recently hitting an injury-hit Sunderland for three at the Stadium of Light in gameweek 27.
Raul Jimenez's double and a late Alex Iwobi strike ensured that Enzo Le Fee's penalty would only prove to be a consolation for the Black Cats, as the Cottagers snapped a three-game losing run in the top flight in some style.
Returning to winning ways allowed Fulham to wrestle back control of the race for a top-half finish; Silva's men occupy 10th spot in the standings before the start of the next gameweek, only three points below Brentford in one of the potential European spots.
Craven Cottage was also kind to the hosts during the festive period, as Fulham picked up four wins and one draw from five home games between December 22 and January 24, but that unbeaten streak came to an abrupt end against Everton in February.
However, Silva's side were 2-0 victors over Tottenham in this exact fixture last season, and their 2-1 win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in November means that they could complete their first league double over Spurs since the 2003-04 term.

Team News
Tottenham have received two belated pieces of good news on the injury front ahead of Sunday's derby, as Pedro Porro and Kevin Danso are both back in training and on course to be available for the trip to Craven Cottage.
Micky van de Ven has also been passed fit despite a minor toe problem, but Dejan Kulusevski (knee), James Maddison (knee), Rodrigo Bentancur (thigh), Mohammed Kudus (thigh), Ben Davies (ankle), Lucas Bergvall (ankle), Wilson Odobert (knee), Destiny Udogie (thigh) and Cristian Romero (suspended) are still sidelined.
Porro and Danso's returns may prove critical for Tottenham, as the defensive duo are perfect fits for Tudor's 3-5-2 setup - on paper at least - and could both be drafted back into the first XI right away.
Fulham's success at Sunderland was not without sacrifice, as attacker Kevin was taken off towards the end of the first half at the Stadium of Light with a foot injury, which will require surgery and could sideline him for weeks.
Kevin's concern could open the door for Oscar Bobb to start in the London derby, although Samuel Chukwueze (calf) may be in contention to return here and is a viable alternative.
Antonee Robinson (ankle) and Sasa Lukic (thigh) have also re-joined team training too, but Silva should see no reason to make any unenforced changes to the side that put the Black Cats to the sword.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Berge, Iwobi; Wilson, Smith Rowe, Bobb; Jimenez
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Vicario; Danso, Van de Ven, Dragusin; Porro, Palhinha, Gallagher, Spence; Sarr, Simons; Kolo Muani

Fulham lineup vs. Tottenham: Predicted XI for Premier League London derby after Kevin injury blow
Fulham head coach Marco Silva will be forced into an attacking alteration for Sunday's Premier League London derby with Tottenham Hotspur at Craven Cottage.
The Cottagers lost Kevin to a foot injury midway through their 3-1 victory over Sunderland, and Silva conceded at full time that the Brazilian's condition 'did not look good'.
The Portuguese admitted on Friday that Kevin will likely undergo surgery and miss weeks of action, but on three brighter notes, all of Antonee Robinson, Sasa Lukic and Samuel Chukwueze are back in training following issues of their own.
However, if Chukwueze is not passed fit to start, Oscar Bobb should be drafted into the XI alongside Emile Smith Rowe, Harry Wilson and Raul Jimenez, scorer of a brace at the Stadium of Light last weekend.
By breaking the deadlock last time out, Jimenez has now netted the first goal in 32 of the 61 Premier League matches he has scored in, the second-highest ratio among all players to net in 50 games or more in the tournament after James Beattie.
Should Lukic also be spared, expect Alex Iwobi to operate in a deeper midfield slot with Sander Berge once again, while Ryan Sessegnon is primed to start against his old team too.
The former Spurs left-back - whose time at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was blighted by injuries - is set to form part of an unchanged rearguard also comprising Kenny Tete, Calvin Bassey, Joachim Andersen and Bernd Leno.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Berge, Iwobi; Wilson, Smith Rowe, Bobb; Jimenez

Pre-Spurs Press Conference
Marco Silva knows Fulham will have to be at our best in order to continue our good recent record against Tottenham Hotspur.
We haven't lost to our London rivals in the better part of three years, but Silva knows there is zero margin for complacency, despite Spurs' precarious position in the table.
"We have to prove it again," he said. "The last two home games [against them], the result went our way. The last away game we won, the second to last away game we drew.
"Okay, the last four, I think we won three and drew one, if I'm not wrong. But now it's another one, and we have to prove again our quality, what we are capable to do.
"I know that the position they are in is below their standards, this season has not been the best, but I have enough experience and maturity to know that sometimes it's so tricky to have these types of games, that you can't underestimate a group of players and a club that wants to react.
"And let's hope we don't give them a good day for them to react, and we can be at our best level, because we need our best level.
"Me, my players, and I hope our fans, we don't go in a direction to underestimate them, because it's going to be a big mistake. I'm 100 per cent sure we are not going to do it, because the respect is there.
"We won the last games against them because we were better, and we should prove it on the pitch again on Sunday if we want to win the game."

Team News: Kevin out for several weeks
Marco Silva has confirmed that Kevin is likely to undergo surgery and could be sidelined for several weeks.
The forward sustained a fifth metatarsal injury during Fulham's 3–1 victory at Sunderland and was forced off shortly before half-time.
"Kevin is the only player who will not be in contention for the game," Marco explained.
"We're are waiting (to find out more), but he's probably going to have surgery and will be out for some weeks. It's a big blow for us and for him personally. We're here to support him."
There was, however, more encouraging news regarding Fulham's other injury concerns.
"Saša (Lukić), (Samuel) Chukwueze and the others have been in and out of contention, but they've had a good week. (Antonee) Robinson is back in sessions with the team.
"We another session and we're going to make a decision after that."

Fulham winger Kevin out for several weeks and faces surgery
Fulham's record signing Kevin faces several weeks on the sidelines with a foot injury.
The winger went off during the recent win against Sunderand and is likely to require surgery.
Whites boss Marco Silva said ahead of this weekend's game against Tottenham: "About Kevin, as the feeling was after the game, it looked serious, and he's going to be out.
"We are waiting, but probably he's going to have surgery next Monday and he's going to be out for some weeks.
"It's the fifth metatarsal and he's going to be out. Soon you are going to have more feedback from our medical staff."
The injury is a major blow for Kevin and Fulham as the club chases a European place.
He was beginning to find some form following his big-money move to west London.
"It's a big blow for us, definitely. It's a big blow for us, and for him personally, because slowly we started to see the reason why we signed him," said Silva.
"We showed the trust in him. Even the game against Sunderland, that 40 minutes that he played, he probably was one of the best players on the pitch during that period."

Programme
To reduce Raúl Jiménez's contribution to goals and penalties alone would be to misunderstand his role within Marco Silva's Fulham.
The modern centre-forward is a multifaceted operator, required to press, link play, occupy defenders and create space for others. Much of this work unfolds beyond the spotlight, visible only to teammates, coaches and the most attentive observers. Pressing triggers turnovers. Movement distorts defensive structures. Selfless running generates opportunities for others.
Jiménez has always spoken the language of the team, a trait that perhaps explains why managers trust him so implicitly.
"Sometimes people don't really see the hard work that me or the front players do every game," Raúl tells the official matchday programme for the visit of Tottenham Hotspur. "But we know that we have to do a great job defensively in pressing the opposition as that's what helps the team recover the ball. Maybe we're not the ones recovering the ball, but it gives the defenders or the midfielders a better chance to recover and to start an attack."
Elsewhere in the publication, Silva, Tom Cairney and Robert Wilson pen their regular columns, while Antonee Robinson lifts the lid on his teammates, and Paul Konchesky is the next interview in our Cult Heroes series.

Boost for Fulham as Chukwueze resumes training ahead of PL clash against Tottenham Hotspur
Fulham manager Marco Silva has offered a positive update on the fitness of Samuel Chukwueze ahead of the Premier League showdown with Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
The Nigerian international missed last weekend's 3-1 victory over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light due to an injury sustained during the week.
Speaking to the media, Silva confirmed that Chukwueze has resumed training this week as he prepares for the Spurs encounter.
"Saša (Lukić), (Samuel) Chukwueze and the others have been in and out of contention. But they've had a good week. (Antonee) Robinson is back in sessions with the team," Silva was quoted as saying by Fulham's official webpage.
The Portuguese manager added that final decisions on the squad will be made after the team's next training session. "We another session and we're going to make a decision after that," he added.
Chukwueze, who joined the Cottagers on loan from AC Milan over the summer, has been in sensational form this season.
After two challenging campaigns, he has managed three goals and four assists in 13 Premier League appearances.
His potential return would be a significant boost for Fulham as they aim to continue their impressive run following the win over Sunderland.

From the Press Box: Kevin likely needs surgery
Jack Kelly gives us the latest from Silva's pre-Spurs press conference.
The last few weeks have consisted of a lot of away games, but now Fulham have three home fixtures to look forward to in the space of seven days. Starting this weekend against Spurs.
Igor Tudor's reign got off to the worst possible start last weekend, as for the second time this season Tottenham were on the end of a 4-1 hammering from arch rivals Arsenal. Now, they visit the Cottage on Sunday, a ground they haven't won at since January 2023.
Fulham are in a good place after a wobbly couple of weeks in the league resulting in three league defeats in a row. A win against Stoke in the FA Cup and a big win against Sunderland last Sunday means Fulham have climbed back into the top half of the Premier League.
It was bad news regarding Kevin's injury. The Brazilian was forced off at the end of the first half against Spurs.
Silva confirmed it's likely he will undergo surgery which will keep Kevin out the side for several weeks.
"About Kevin, as the feeling was after the game, it looked serious and he's going to be out. We are waiting but probably he's going to have a surgery next Monday and he's going to be out for some week", said Silva.
It's the fifth metatarsal and he's going to be out but soon you are going to have more feedback from our medical staff."
It's a bitter blow for Kevin, in his first season in England. Fulham are blessed with other options of the left, but Kevin was starting to find a bit of form after scoring three goals already this year. His performances reflected a player who was finding some confidence.
The injury is a setback and he will be missed.
Apart from Kevin, Silva said everyone else was available, including Sasa Lukic who has been out since January. Samuel Chukwueze has missed the last two games, but was training this week. Antonee Robinson was unavailable for last week's win, but has trained this week too.
This is the first of three games at Craven Cottage. Three games in a week in both league and cup. Fulham have had a strong record against Spurs recently, and could do the double over them with a win on Sunday, a week after doing the same against Sunderland.
Raul Jimenez's brace last week has got fans pondering as to whether the Mexican should stay another season, with his contract expiring in the summer. Silva was asked about it earlier.
"It's a possibility (another year at FFC) - it's up to him and the club. It's been a good season from him again, he's doing well. At the right time, we are going to have conversations."
This marks the start of a big run of games for Fulham. A real chance to pick up some more points, progress in the cup and keep the good feeling going. This could be a season defining week for Silva's side.
Let's hope we can start March off in the right way against struggling Spurs, ahead of the visit of West Ham on Wednesday.

Fulham winger Kevin to miss several weeks with foot injury
LONDON (AP) - Fulham's Brazilian winger Kevin will be sidelined for weeks because of a foot injury that likely requires surgery, manager Marco Silva said Friday.
The 23-year-old Kevin, who has three goals and three assists in 28 appearances this season, was injured in the 3-1 win over Sunderland last Sunday in the Premier League.
Silva said the forward has an injury to his fifth metatarsal and is "probably going to have surgery."
"It´s a big blow for us and for him personally," Silva said.
Fulham paid a reported transfer fee of $46 million to Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk for Kevin last summer. He joined Shakhtar in January 2024 from Palmeiras.
Mid-table Fulham hosts Tottenham at Craven Cottage on Sunday.

Fulham vs Spurs: Marco Silva confirms major injury blow ahead of Tottenham fixture
Fulham boss Marco Silva has revealed that Kevin will "probably" have to undergo surgery after he sustained a foot injury in last weekend's win over Sunderland.
The Brazilian winger was forced off in first half stoppage time of Fulham's 3-1 success at the Stadium of Light.
Silva admitted the injury did not look good when he spoke to reporters directly after the Premier League encounter.
In a fresh update, the Fulham manager has confirmed that Kevin will be out for several weeks with a fifth metatarsal injury.
Fulham's Kevin set to undergo surgery
"Kevin is the only player who will not be in contention for the game," Fulham told reporters ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur.
"We're are waiting (to find out more), but he's probably going to have surgery and will be out for some weeks. It's a big blow for us and for him personally. We're here to support him."
While he has not always been a starter, Kevin has featured in all but one of the 23 Premier League games he has been available for since completing a £35m move from Shakhtar Donetsk last summer.
Fulham's club-record signing scored his first Premier League goal in a 3-2 defeat to Manchester United at the start of February.
Trio pushing to return for Spurs clash
With Kevin sidelined, the door could be open for Oscar Bobb to make his first Premier League start since arriving from Manchester City in January.
Silva could have another wide option available, with Samuel Chukwueze hoping to be in contention following a two-game injury absence.
The Fulham boss said that a final decision on Chukwueze's availability and that of Sasa Lukic and Antonee Robinson will be made after the last training session ahead of Sunday's meeting with a struggling Tottenham side.
Fulham will be targeting a third consecutive home win over Spurs, having won 3-0 in March 2024 and 2-0 in March 2025.

Kevin: Fulham handed huge injury blow as record signing ruled out 'for weeks'
Cottagers face Tottenham at home on Sunday but Brazilian will play no part
Fulham's club-record signing Kevin is set to spend several weeks on the sidelines with a foot injury.
The Brazilian winger, 23, joined Fulham from Shakhtar Donetsk late in the summer transfer window but has struggled to bed in.
He did not find the back of the net for the Cottagers until January, since taking his tally for the season to eight goals and five assists in 33 appearances.
And his frustrating debut season in west London is only set to get worse, as Fulham boss Marco Silva has confirmed may be forced under the knife to correct a foot injury sustained in last week's defeat of Sunderland.
"Kevin is the only player who will not be in contention [to face Tottenham on Sunday]," said Silva, asked for an update on the state of his squad.
"We're are waiting (to find out more), but he's probably going to have surgery and will be out for some weeks.
"It's a big blow for us, and for him personally. We're here to support him."
On other team news, Silva added: "Saša (Lukić), (Samuel) Chukwueze and the others have been in and out of contention, but they've had a good week. (Antonee) Robinson is back in sessions with the team.
"We another session [before the match] and we're going to make a decision after that."
It is not yet clear exactly how long Kevin will remain sidelined. At the very least, he will not be involved as Igor Tudor's crisis-stricken Tottenham visit Craven Cottage on Sunday.
Spurs sit just four points above the relegation zone, and have plenty of injury worries of their own.
Fulham have not tasted defeat in any of their last four meetings with their north London rivals, and have won their last three meetings with Spurs at the Cottage.
Silva said he is keen to extend that form, but that he is wary of underestimating Tudor's side.
He continued: "We have to prove it again. The last two home games [against Spurs], the result went our way. The last away game we won, the second to last away game we drew.
"Okay, the last four, I think we won three and drew one, if I'm not wrong. But now it's another one, and we have to prove our quality again, what we are capable to do.
"I know that the position they are in is below their standards, this season has not been the best, but I have enough experience and maturity to know that sometimes it's so tricky to have these types of games, that you can't underestimate a group of players and a club that wants to react.
"And let's hope we don't give them a good day for them to react, and we can be at our best level, because we need our best level."
