Sounds like Hull are going to land a few Chelsea players this summer. Guess it makes sense when your manager is mates with Roman Abramovich

Fulham close to signing Marcelo Djalo despite reservations from coaching staff


Sky Sports News HQ understands that Djalo has been identified as a target by the Whites' statistical analysis team, which is led by director of football operations Tony Khan and his assistant Craig Kline.

And the club are pressing ahead with the move despite reservations from Fulham's coaching staff that Djalo would not be a worthwhile signing.

Just seen it would be a free transfer. Not much too lose then. Either A he turns out to be good and it's a bargain or B no money is wasted and hes probably on very small wages coming from the Spanish second division.

I believe they wouldn't sign someone Joka says he doesnt want. Coaching staff might mean some other areas ie scouts or first team coaches think hes not a worthwhile signing

I swear every time we find some sort of hipster unknown signing, Sky feel obliged to include "the stats guy found him but Joka doesn't like him" line like they're trying to poo stir or something

Probably Sky trying to make something out of nothing.

[AlexW132]

If it's a free transfer then I'm all for it, fills up our thin squad. However we do need another good CB and Kalas is hanging in the balance. Side note: How nice it is that someone actually really wants to join Fulham ahead of other options for once!

Hope your right as that's what the club have said a few times, that both boxes have to be checked by stats and scouting, the SJ has his say. SJ is listed as head coach so can't blame people for being sceptical when it says coaching team have reservations

Fulham are in talks with Bastia over a transfer for Alexander Dijku - he would be a back up for Odoi & will cost around £1m. #FulhamFC #FFC

Like I asked the Tweeter, why exactly does Odoi need a backup? He is the backup.

Edit: Talked with Curtis. And now I understand. This guy is the possible replacement should Odoi leave for greener pastures.

These twitter ITK's are just sh*t stirrers and have no contacts in the club. Besides, they just recycle info from what the papers are saying or say vague statements like "a defender is close to signing...". These fake news people shouldn't be given attention.

To be fair to Curtis, he's a fulham supporter and doesn't claim to be ITK, but he knows someone who is because he called the Piazon signing on deadline day last summer about 30 mins before it was announced, and printed screenshots to prove he knew about it.

[aaronmcguigan]

According to Curtis:

-Kalas has refused to go to Hull
-Kalas will buy out his own contract to leave Chelsea
-Jokanovic and Khan work better without Kline
-Dijku will cost 1m and come as a back up to Odoi
-Huddersfield have bid for Mounie
-FFC have identified 4 strikers if Mounie doesn't sign, all based abroad
-McDonald is happy and doesn't want to leave
-Were in talks to sign Ole Sanaes
-Sunderland won't be a threat as they have no manager


Pick a player, pick a rumour, casually forget to based it on any source, fact or quote, boom, get replies and followers

[fulhamben]

So going on that, Frederick's is leaving. And our back up will now be first choice. Not the great start to improving the squad I was hoping for

[Bexhill Beast]

I read it as back-up in case Odoi  leaves for Gent.
