Several rumors surfaced tonight claiming that the young striker Samu Omorodion failed his medical, casting serious doubt on the Samu Omorodion agreement. We all thought the 20-year-old’s exclusion from Saturday’s Olympic gold medal game was due to the agreed-upon Transfer involving Chelsea. So it turns out not!

 

 

 

 

 

Several Spanish sources, including Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein of The Athletic, have confirmed the reports, so there’s no need to question the validity of the uncertainty around this €40 million agreement. Although deals have recovered from similar situations in the past, it appears that this one is hopeless at the moment.

 

Whether or when Conor Gallagher’s agreement that went the other way also falls through is the intriguing aspect. We have a solid replacement for Omorodion in Nico Jackson, but Chelsea obviously expected Gallagher to leave, so…

The signing of Diego Carlos is drawing near for Fulham

Diego Carlos, a Brazilian center-back, is being considered by Fulham, who are also in negotiations with Aston Villa.Fulham are reportedly making more of an effort to sign Diego Carlos from Aston Villa, as reported by Fabrizio Romano. Although there is still a lot of work to be done on the deal’s structure and personal conditions, the two teams may be nearing an agreement. Concealed from view, the Cottagers are likewise investigating potential substitutes.

Is Diego Carlos on the Fulham radar?

Getting a central defender is Fulham’s top priority before the transfer window closes, ideally before the new Premier League season begins. After Tosin Adarabioyo’s free move to Chelsea, the Cottagers were left with little options and the necessity arose.

 

Aston Villa likely views 31-year-old defender Diego Carlos as expendable, which explains Fulham’s interest in him. The fact that the Cottagers are being considered as a potential replacement by Unai Emery for the Brazilian star could mean that his trip comes to an end.

 

Talks to sign Carlos have reportedly progressed to an advanced stage, and Fulham have stepped up their attempts to do so (Fabrizio Romano). The writer maintains that the two teams could reach an agreement, even though details about the deal’s structure and personal terms are still up in the air.

 

If Marco Silva is successful in his pursuit of the 31-year-old defender Carlos, he will have a capable successor for the departing Adarabioyo. The Brazilian has a decent shot of getting to London before the new season starts, so an agreement might be struck in the next few days as the transaction is in its advanced stages.

 

In the background, Fulham is looking into other options.

Even while Fulham isn’t betting the farm on Carlos, they do consider him a priority signing. Crystal Palace are considering a proposal that is nearly twice as high as the £20 million that the Cottagers put for Joachim Andersen.

 

If they are unable to sign Carlos within this time frame, other names may also surface. The 31-year-old defender appears to be Fulham’s top target at the moment, and with negotiations underway, the club may not have to seek out alternatives unless they want to add a second central defender to their roster this summer.
