Fulham will reportedly compete with other Premier League clubs for 25-year-old Leicester City midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
According to a report by Daily Mail, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is the subject of interest from Fulham. The Cottagers are scouring the market for a versatile midfielder heading into the summer transfer window. However, they will face stiff competition from other Premier League clubs for the 25-year-old, who has won the EFL Championship title with Leicester City.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and his advent
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has been with Leicester City for nearly two decades. However, he has come leaps and bounds in the last couple of years. The Englishman was a rare shining light in the 2022/23 season, which saw Leicester City dropping to the EFL Championship. And he has taken the second division by storm this term.
The 25-year-old has been one of the most productive players in the EFL Championship this term, with his exploits guiding Leicester City to the title. Dewsbury-Hall has contributed to 27 goals in 49 appearances across all competitions, finding the back of the net 12 times while providing 15 assists.
Dewsbury-Hall’s exploits with Leicester City this season have not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile Premier League clubs. The versatile English has now emerged as a target for Fulham. Meanwhile, Leicester City will demand around £30 million to part ways with him in the summer transfer window.
London calling?
Fulham’s interest in Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is understandable. The West London club will likely finish in the bottom half of the Premier League table in the 2023/24 season. So, they are scouring the market for top-class players who can take them up the standings in the upcoming campaign.
Several productive players, including Fotis Ioannidis, have thus emerged on Fulham’s radar. And Dewsbury-Hall is also a viable target for the West London club. Meanwhile, the Cottagers should have the funds to complete a deal worth £30 million for the Leicester City midfielder.
However, Fulham will face competition from other mid-table Premier League clubs, including Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford, for Dewsbury-Hall. Meanwhile, holding on to the 25-year-old English midfielder should serve Leicester City well in the top flight next term.
