Fulham have gotten off to a fantastic start upon their return to the Premier League, and there’s a feeling that the Whites are just a few signings away from being able to truly establish themselves at this level.
Fulham’s first XI has been brilliant so far, but it has to be said that the Whites are lacking some serious depth.
Untested youngster such as Terry Ablade, Jay Stansfield, Tyreese Francois and Ollie O’Neill have all been regulars on the bench this season, and with the five-subs rule this season, the west London side need to add more quality to their squad.
Luckily for Fulham, Tony Khan loves a deadline day signing, and there may be a few through the door at Craven Cottage on deadline day.
With that in mind, we’ve had a go at predicting Fulham’s post-Deadline Day XI.
We think that there will be no fewer than four new faces through the door on Thursday at Fulham.
Layvin Kurzawa and Willian are almost done deals by the sounds of things, and while they’re probably not likely to be starters, they’re in our XI for presentation reasons.
According to Lequipe, Fulham are in talks for a move for Houssem Aouar, so he slots into our midfield, while The Telegraph have linked Fulham with Bamba Dieng who can play as a striker or a winger.
Many feel as though Fulham need two wingers and a striker on deadline day, but with Manor Solomon and Harry Wilson set to return before too long, their best course of action may be to sign someone like Dieng who can cover both roles.
Whether or not Fulham have another trick up their sleeve remains to be seen, but the Cottagers are certainly a team to keep an eye on as the window reaches its climax.
