Some Fulham fans are thrilled with reports that Arsenal defender Calum Chambers could be joining on loan.

Arsenal defender Calum Chambers could reportedly move to Craven Cottage on loan, and some Fulham fans on Twitter are ecstatic about his potential arrival.

According to the Daily Mail, the 23-year-old is set to join Fulham on a season-long loan deal and is expected to have a medical on Monday.

It is understood that manager Slavisa Jokanovic needs more defensive reinforcements in the final week of the transfer window, as summer arrival Alfie Mawson will not be available until September.

Chambers is a versatile player who has shown during his time with Arsenal that he can fill in at both centre-back and right-back with relative ease.

The three-time England international signed a new four-year deal with Arsenal back in July, but it seems like manager Unai Emery will allow him to depart on a temporary basis.

Fulham have been active this summer as they prepare for life back in the Premier League, with the likes of Jean Michael Seri, Andre Schurrle and Aleksandar Mitrovic all joining the club.

Some of their supporters certainly seem pleased that Chambers could become the latest acquisition on loan and feel he could be a good fit under Jokanovic.

Here is some of the Fulham reaction to the Chambers speculation:
