Aboubakar Kamara has scored three Premier League goals for Fulham but was loaned out to Yeni Malatyaspor in the January transfer window.
Fulham could be set for a £13.5 million windfall at the end of the season – thanks to Aboubakar Kamara.
After a number of unseemly flashpoints on and off the pitch, the striker bid farewell to Craven Cottage in the final days of the January transfer window, moving to Turkish Super Lig outfit Yeni Malatyaspor on loan until the end of the season.
According to Haberturk, they have the option of making Kamara’s loan deal permanent for a handsome fee of £13.5 million. And Malatyaspor’s president, Adil Gevrek, has suggested that the club will pay the fee should the 23-year-old impress in yellow and black.
“I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this transfer,” Gevrek said.
“(Kamara is) a very important player. We have signed him for his potential. There is a £13.5 million sale option in the contract. We believe that will contribute to the team.”
Fulham paid £5.35 million to sign Kamara from French side Amiens in the summer of 2017 (Sky). So, should he impress over in Turkey, a hefty £8 million profit could be about to come their way.
Kamara scored three goals in five Premier League starts in the first half of the season but it seems that it is his attitude rather than his ability that paved the way for Claudio Ranieri to give the green light to his departure.
