Wilson, Adama & Raul Staying until 2026 🤝

[SanFranFulhamfan]

The Club is pleased to confirm that it has exercised options to extend the contracts of Harry Wilson, Adama Traoré and Raúl Jiménez.

The contracts of the attacking trio now all run until June 2026.

Wilson has found the back of the net five times in 2024/25, an impressive number from just 11 starts, while Adama is into double figures for goal contributions, scoring twice and laying on eight assists for teammates.

Raúl has built on a solid maiden campaign in black and white by leading the scoring charts this term, notching 13 times across all competitions.



Tony Khan said: "I'm excited to announce that we have activated the Club's option to extend the contracts of Harry Wilson, Adama Traoré and Raúl Jiménez through to the end of next season.

"Harry has been a huge part of the success we've enjoyed under Marco Silva, scoring some vitally important goals, and it's great to see him back.

"Adama and Raúl both joined in the summer of 2023, and their significant contributions have shown exactly why we wanted to bring them to the football club.

"I'm delighted that all three will be at Fulham for 2025/26, as we look to enjoy another successful Premier League campaign.

"Come on Fulham!"

Great news, in my opinion. Hopefully we can get Kenny to extend.

[jayffc]

Great news.

King Kenny next please

[elgreenio]

Is there anybody else that has an option that we've not yet taken?

Can't say i'm overly enthused about the Adama one but better the devil you know I guess, especially when we need one more winger anyway on top of what we've got

[Drewry66]

No brainer to keep them. All offer a lot and even with them need to add a third striker and another winger or two anyway so we were always going to extend. Please, please get this Tete deal done as the other lads have said and would be a great start to the summer.

Adama has 10 goal involvements this year. He's inconsistent but when on it he's excellent and offers something different. He was brilliant start of the season. Be madness not to keep him as at least a back up. Hoping for a couple top wingers on top but defo worth keeping I think.

Everyone else is under contract I believe apart from Tete, Cairney, Willian and Vinicius I think and don't think any of them have options. Obviously trying to renew Tete. Who knows re Cairney/Willian and surely Vinicius is finally off of course.

Edit: Vinicius has an option. Won't be taking it of course unless we think we can somehow sell him for something.

A solid resigning for another year. Buys time & see how it works out, well done!

Let's hope the Mr Khan is able to give Marco a new salary / bonus package that he can't refuse PLUS the funds & where with all to make the signings to strengthen & develop as we need to

Onwards & Upwards

COYW!!

I hope we can agree a new deal with Kenny.  TC and Willian- thanks for your contributions but goodbye and good luck.  Vini, on the other hand, I think could always 'do a job' for us. While he's not a world beater, he's got ability, is physical, can be a nuisance for defenders and I don't remember him letting us down.  It must be hard to be no. 3 striker and a Mitro-lite.  Probably not a popular opinion!  But if we can't get an upgrade I'd like to see him given opportunity at least as an impact sub.

With Muniz out Marco did everything possible not to turn to Vinicius. Killed us end of the season with no decent option off the bench and for me quite possible we'd still be in with a shout if we had better back up. We only kept him because of Jay going last minute. Good bless him for Chelsea at home a few years ago but he'll be gone.

Surely have to go for a young promising striker with huge potential who doesn't break the bank. Baby Mitro from Millwall for me! Then actual Mitro back next year on a free when Raul goes. It's the master plan.

Complete and total lack of ambition underwhelming 🤦�♂️

Agreed,  IF, IF, IF we can get an upgrade.

Good news! 

[St Eve]

Excellent news

[Somerset Fulham]

Great news, this. All three are solid PL footballers and means we can comfortably look to sort other positions now.

Complete and total lack of ambition underwhelming 🤦�♂️

It is becoming more and more evident what you are.

[RAY Rock]

How are they solid premier league footballers totally underwhelming
Raul can't run
Traore very inconsistent same with Wilson
No way starting 11 players

[Somerset Fulham]

Because all three are Premier League level footballers....

If we improve on all three then brilliant but we don't have to, they are all solid, and Raul on his day is absolute quality, pace or not.

If you think Raul can't run you haven't been watching him this season.

This has post has got some stick but you're right, no one will want any of those three in our regular starting XI next season.

Not to mention at least Jiminez and Traore will be on hefty wages, and the three have an average age of 30, blocking a rotation spot that could be used to develop someone younger.

On the other hand I agree with the point above that they're solid PL quality (on a squad/rotation basis) and we need to retain some continuity. If we ship out say Reed, Vinicius, Cairney, Willian and Nelson and bring in 5 big upgrades there, that'll do me, just about.

This is ambitious as Fulham can possibly be without either risk ruining the club or breaking the FFP Rules. Look at Fulham's Accounts in government house we have been pushing (or exceeding by tiny amounts) the absolute limits of FFP.

Frankly, we still have five spots left in next seasons squad without enough FFP budget to fill all of them with PL quality. To achieve what Crystal Palace has over the last decade (ie stay up) is actually quite ambitious. The point of FFP is to punish clubs that got too ambitious and failed.

We spend with a goal of playing in Europe and miss out, then we end up in the Championship as a non-yo-yo club.

Don't believe me, then look how since FFP has been implemented we have got the 9th place curse (with the first nine 9th place finishers being Fulham, Swansea, Stoke, Stoke, Bournemouth,  Leicester, Leicester, Sheffield United and Leeds all getting relegated soon after).

In the 10th year of FFP, Brighton broke the curse by knowing their place, following FFP designed plan and selling their best players to the Big Clubs. That is not being too ambitious. Like many rules in society they aren't right, but we will be punished if we don't follow them.

You think fans are going to fork out for the riverside to watch those 3 totally underwhelming
Where is Muniz and Tete and  Sessegnon new contracts where is Silva's new contract.
