Fulham agree Oscar Bobb deal as Man City include two key clauses

Oscar Bobb is set to complete a permanent transfer to Fulham as the London club agree to sign him from Manchester City for an initial £27m.

Bobb is set to join Fulham as a replacement for fellow winger Adama Traore, who has signed for West Ham, and this means they have more cover in case Harry Wilson, who is out of contract at the end of the season, leaves Craven Cottage.

However, as part of the deal, Manchester City will also get a 20 percent sell-on clause and matching rights in case they want to bring the Norway international back to the Etihad Stadium.

Bobb has failed to get enough game time this season and the arrival of winger Semenyo from Bournemouth pushed him further down the pecking order.

Pep Guardiola currently boost of summer signings Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Cherki, plus Phil Foden, Bernardo Silva, Omar Marmoush, Jeremy Doku and Savinho for the roles in attacking midfield and on the wing.

Bobb, who also attracted interest from Borussia Dortmund, has started five Premier League games this season, and will be eager to impress at Fulham.

The 22-year-old made 47 appearances for City, scoring three goals – the most significant an injury-time winner at Newcastle in January 2024.

If Bobb passes a medical and completes his transfer in time, he could make his Fulham debut against Manchester United on Sunday.

Meanwhile, City have spent around £430m in the last three transfer windows, but have also brought in money by selling players such as James McAtee, Maximo Perrone, Kyle Walker, Ederson and Bobb.
