Fulham are on the verge of completing a move for Manchester City starlet Oscar Bobb.<\/p>\n

According to reports, the West London club has made significant progress in negotiations with the Premier League champions.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old Norwegian international is expected to cost Fulham a fee in the region of \u00a330million.<\/p>\n

Personal Terms Ready as Bobb Eyes Exit<\/h2>\n

The move comes after Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola<\/a> admitted over the weekend that he believes Bobb wishes to leave the Etihad Stadium in search of regular first-team football.<\/p>\n

Despite his immense promise, Bobb has struggled for consistent minutes this season, starting just five Premier League matches.<\/p>\n

He also saw his pathway further blocked by the arrival of \u00a365m signing Antoine Semenyo.<\/p>\n

Personal terms are understood to be ready for Bobb to sign, with a long-term contract at Craven Cottage awaiting the winger once a formal club-to-club agreement is reached.<\/p>\n

A medical is expected to be scheduled shortly as Fulham race against the January 31 deadline.<\/p>\n

The Adama Traore Domino Effect<\/h2>\n

Fulham’s pursuit of Bobb is intrinsically linked to the departure of Adama Traore with West Ham’s transfer spree<\/a> set to continue.<\/p>\n

The Spanish winger is reportedly “inches away” from a move to West Ham United, where he will reunite with former Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo.<\/p>\n

With Traore heading to the London Stadium for a modest fee in their battle against relegation, Marco Silva has identified Bobb as the ideal replacement.<\/p>\n

Unlike the explosive, physical style of Traore, Bobb offers a more technical, incisive profile that Silva believes will better suit Fulham’s tactical evolution in the second half of the season.<\/p>\n

A Risk for the Cottagers?<\/h2>\n

While the potential of Oscar Bobb is undeniable, the move is not without its risks.<\/p>\n

The winger has spent the last month on the sidelines with a hamstring injury and hasn’t featured in a competitive league match since November.<\/p>\n

Some sections of the Fulham faithful have voiced concerns over the club’s “recovery centre” approach this window, with long-term target Ricardo Pepi also currently recovering from a broken arm.<\/p>\n

However, Silva appears willing to wait for the Norwegian to return to full fitness to lead Fulham’s charge up the table.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
