Fulham and Silva could sign £30,000-p/w full-back instead of Walker-Peters

Fulham and Marco Silva are now interested in signing a “formidable” player of £ 30,000 per week as a possible alternative to Kyle Walker-Peters, strongly linked, according to Sky Sports.

Fulham intensifies the transfer plans during their Walker-Peters agreement

The chalets are always looking for a European place, but with only four games to play in the league, they lack time to fill the gap. Therefore, although they will want to end the season as best as possible, the attention of Silva and the club’s hierarchy slowly turn to next season and what they hope to do in summer.

It was reported last week that Fulham had contacted Juventus concerning an agreement for Nicolo Savona. The Italian emerged on the Fulham radar, but they are not alone in the race, because several other teams from England also wish to sign the versatile defender.

He is not the only defender of their list of objectives, because according to the journalist of Sky Sports Dharmesh Sheth, the Cottager are eager to sign Kyle Walker-Peters once his contract in Southampton expires. The Premier League team plans to open discussions on contracts with its agents once the campaign is over.

The transfer news does not stop there for the Silva team, because while Liverpool is in talks on the signing of Antonee Robinson, Fulham proposed the idea of ​​Re-Signaler Harvey Elliott in a partial swap agreement, which seems ready to leave Anfield at the end of this season. English is looking for a more regular playing time, and a return to Craven Cottage could be on the cards.

Fulham add the star of Ipswich Ben Johnson to the back-back of the background

But the strengthening of defense seems to be more a priority for Silva, because the chalets have an eye on a player who could be considered an alternative to Walker-Peters. According to Sky Sports, Fulham is eager to sign Ben Johnson of the city of Ipswich this summer.

He is one of the many right backs that the club examines, but it is reported that Johnson does not have a liberation clause, and since he stayed three years on his contract, there remains a key element of the plans of Kieran McKenna.

Johnson, who was described as “formidable” by football scout Antonio Mango, joined the tractor boys in the summer transfer window on a free transfer after leaving West Ham. The International England under 21, which can also cover the central defender and the left back, has played 22 times in the Premier League for Ipswich so far, scoring a goal and recording two assists.

McKenna will probably want to keep Johnson, who is on a weekly salary of £ 30,000 in Portman Road, but the offer of stay in the Premier League and to play for a team that should not be in difficulty of relegation can be too good to bend down.
