Senegalese defender Arouna Sangante, who plays for Ligue 1 team Le Havre, is reportedly a target for Fulham.
In addition, other Premier League teams are interested in the Senegalese defender.
Fulham’s defence has shown a lot of weakness this year. It follows that their goal of adding a top-notch defender in January is not surprising. The 21-year-old has a high reputation.
Fulham needs to strengthen their defence if they hope to finish in the top half of the league. In 16 league games, they have given up 26 goals. Sangante would undoubtedly help the West London team strengthen their defence, but they will still need to sign a top-tier defender.
The 21-year-old will find it appealing to play in the Premier League, as it would represent a significant advancement in his career. He will want to establish himself as the best, and it may be difficult to pass up the opportunity to regularly display his abilities in the Premier League.
Given that the Ligue 1 team values the player at £15 million, the Cottagers most definitely have the financial wherewithal to sign him. Since he is still only 21, the Senegalese defender has room to grow. In the long run, he could justify the £15 million investment.
Should he be able to reach his full potential in the Premier League, the move might appear to be a great deal. The 21-year-old is adaptable enough to play full-back on the right side as well. His versatility as a centre-half will undoubtedly help Marco Silva, and the young player possesses the physical and technical qualities necessary to succeed in the Premier League.
According to the report, Fulham has identified Chelsea striker Armando Broja as a possible target as they look to expand their attacking options. It will be interesting to watch if they can make the required acquisitions in the January transfer window and have a successful second half of the season.
