Crystal Palace are interested in signing 22-year-old Manchester City attacker Oscar Bobb, and they will face competition from Fulham.
According to an update by Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur, Crystal Palace are plotting a January move for Manchester City attacker Oscar Bobb, and it remains to be seen whether they can get the deal done.
The Eagles need more quality on the flanks, and the 22-year-old would be ideal for them. The youngster has struggled for regular opportunities at Manchester City, and he needs to move on in search of regular playing time. Crystal Palace will be able to provide him with the opportunity he needs.
Working with a quality manager like Oliver Glasner could bring out the best in the young attacker, and it could help him fulfil his potential. If Crystal Palace can provide him with regular opportunities, the player will certainly be excited about the possibility of joining them.
On the other hand, Fulham are interested in the player as well. They have a competitive team, and they are looking to improve further. However, Crystal Palace are a more attractive destination for Oscar Bobb.
The South London outfit have a better team, a quality manager, and they are fighting in European football. The Manchester City attacker is likely to be attracted to the idea of joining them.
Where will Bobb end up?
It will be interesting to see if Crystal Palace or Fulham follow up on their interest in Oscar Bobb with an official proposal to sign the player. The London clubs have the resources to get the deal across the line, and Manchester City are unlikely to stand in their way.
Selling the 22-year-old will bring in the funds to improve the team further, and Manchester City will look to bring in an upgrade. They need more quality on the flanks as well, and recent reports have linked the Premier League club with Antoine Semenyo.
It will be interesting to see where Bobb ends up eventually. The 22-year-old Norwegian international should look to join a club where he will get a prominent role in the team. Sitting on the bench could be detrimental to his development.
