Fulham in discussions over Lucas Ocampos transfer?

After winning promotion from the Championship in the 2021-22 campaign, the Cottagers exceed expectations in the Premier League last term.

Marco Silva's side finished the season in the comfort of 10th place after picking up 52 points from their 38 top-flight matches.

Despite enjoying a successful campaign, Fulham are in no mood to rest on their laurels, and they hoping to build a squad that can push on next term.

The Cottagers are seemingly keen to strengthen in wide areas, amid uncertainty surrounding the futures of Willian, Manor Solomon and Anthony Knockaert.

Willian, who joined on a free transfer last summer, is out of contract at the end of the month, and he is yet to put pen to paper on a new deal.

Fulham face competition from Tottenham Hotspur in their bid to sign Manor Solomon on a permanent deal following a successful loan spell at Craven Cottage.

Knockaert, meanwhile, is set to depart after spending last season on loan at Greek outfit Volos and Championship side Huddersfield Town.

According to Football Insider, Fulham are interested in signing Ocampos and talks have started over a potential transfer.

Ocampos has 12 months left on his Sevilla contract, and as a result, the La Liga club could be prepared to sanction a sale this summer.

After spending the first half of last season on loan at Ajax, Ocampos returned to his parent club in the January window.

The Argentine went on to make 28 appearances for Sevilla in the 2022-23 campaign, helping the Spanish side win the Europa League.

Since joining the Andalusian club in 2019, Ocampos has featured in 161 competitive games, scoring 39 goals and providing 17 assists.

In addition to his time with Sevilla and Ajax, the 28-year-old has also played for River Plate, Monaco, Marseille, Genoa and AC Milan.
