Fulham have wrapped up two more sensational loan deals

They might just have won the transfer window

They have arguably had the best transfer window out of all 20 Premier League clubs

Fulham have been hard at work during this summer’s transfer window, recruiting some very talented players who should bed into the squad seamlessly.

Aleksandar Mitrović made his loan from Newcastle permament, André Schürlle joined the Cottagers on a two year loan from Borussia Dortmund, and Jean Michael Seri signed from OGC Nice despite interest from several big clubs around Europe.

They’ve also reunited England’s U21 defensive partnership from last summer with the acquisitions of Alfie Mawson and Calum Chambers, and now look set to complete two more loan deals to wrap up a fantastic window.

Fulham have confirmed the arrivals of Luciano Vitto and Timothy Fosu-Mensah this evening.

Fosu-Mensah joins from Manchester United after a relatively successful loan spell at Crystal Palace last season and an impressive pre-season tour, while Vietto joins from Atlético Madrid, having struggled to break into the team ahead of Angel Correa and Kevin Gameiro.

The deadline closed at 5pm but expect to see a few transfers announced after the deadline as the photoshoots and social media content is lined up.

If Fulham get both these deals over the line, it would wrap up a hugely successful window for them, although it’s difficult to judge before the season has started.
