Fulham will have to pay double their current transfer record to stand any chance of signing 15-goal in-demand striker Santiago Gimenez.
According to Team Talk, Fulham must break their current transfer record and pay almost double their present feat if they stand a chance of signing Santiago Gimenez. The need for a new prolific frontman led to Marco Silva looking at the 15-goal Barcelona, Real Madrid, Tottenham target.
Fulham’s struggles on the pitch have been related to the departure of Aleksandar Mitrovic in the summer and their inability to replace him adequately. Raul Jimenez hasn’t done a job, while Carlos Vinicius continued to prove inconsistent with his displays.
Marco Silva could return to the market for another striker during January, as he might consider signing one his top priority. They have already expressed an interest in Santiago Gimenez, but there are many complications in pursuing the prolific 15-goal star from Feyenoord.
For starters, Feyenoord may not stop him from leaving in January, but with each good performance, his price tag could become massive when the next window opens. There have been suggestions that Real Madrid and Tottenham would have to break the Eredivisie record to sign the Mexican.
Realistically, many reports have suggested a €50 million price point, but Feyenoord will undoubtedly hope to collect well above that figure. Hence, if Fulham want to sign the Mexican, they must break their current transfer record and nearly double what they paid for Jean-Michel Seri years ago.
However, the massive interest from big clubs like Real Madrid and Tottenham might put Fulham in a low bracket if Gimenez was about to choose his preferred destination. Barcelona have also entered the chase for the Feyenoord star, but there are doubts whether they have the financial capacity to compete with rivals.
Yet, the Catalans have always managed to spring up surprises and make splashes in the market for the players they need. Gimenez’s profile makes him a top marksman, and hence, the likes of Tottenham are also keen.
Both Tottenham and Real Madrid intend to explore a move for Gimenez around the January window. The 15-goal striker will indeed have more suitors around January, but there’s a feeling he would prefer a move to the Santiago Bernabeu.
While the idea of Fulham being in the race sounds ambitious, the Cottagers do not have a chance of signing the striker unless they are exceptional enough to beat the competition. While Giminez appears destined to move out of Feyenoord, it may be for a top-notch club like Tottenham, Real Madrid, or even Barcelona.
