Premier League duo set sight on Man City star for potential January move

Premier League side Fulham and Crystal Palace are reportedly keeping tabs on Manchester City talent Oscar Bobb should he be allowed to leave in January.

Oscar Bobb has proved in recent times he has what it takes to play for a big club but face stiff competition at Manchester City. An unfortunate injury on the eve of the 2024/25 campaign have also seen him lost his place in the team.

However, latest report from talkSPORT claim City are prepared to let him on loan or permanently.

The report added that a move away from the Etihad for Bobb is only expected should City complete the signing of Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth.

Semenyo has been linked to the top clubs in the Premier League but the Ghanaian International reportedly favours a move to City.

Should City go ahead and pay his release clause that is between £60-65million, Bobb will be set for a new adventure.

Aside Fulham and Crystal Palace, Spanish team Sevilla are also keeping tabs on Bobb.

The 22-year-old forward made his first team debut for City in September 2023 and has made 47 appearances in total for the English heavyweights.

This season, Bobb has started nine games for City across all competitions but contributed just one assist, which came in the season-opening 4-0 win over Wolves.

At age 22 and with game time paramount ahead of Norway’s berth at the 2026 World Cup coupled with Semenyo’s mooted arrival, Bobb may be forced to look elsewhere to ensure he is fit and firing ahead of next year’s tournament.
