Fulham have been linked with moving for Leeds loanee Cameron Borthwick-Jackson, who is on loan from Manchester United.
Fulham are keen on signing Leeds United loanee Cameron Borthwick-Jackson, according to the Daily Mail.
Borthwick-Jackson has struggled on loan at Leeds since signing from Manchester United and the Whites’ buying Laurens De Bock from Club Brugge further impedes his chances of regular football.
Fulham’s interest in Borthwick-Jackson comes as a potential lifeline to the youngster, and his arrival in west London could help their star left-back.
Ryan Sessegnon is arguably England’s most exciting prospect, with the left-back drawing comparisons to Gareth Bale.
Borthwick-Jackson’s arrival can benefit him, as it would allow him to play further forward on the wing.
Sessegnon’s attacking ability has had fans calling for him to be used as a winger, and add to the seven goals he has scored already this season.
Awkward conversation
If Borthwick-Jackson leaves Leeds and begins a new loan spell at Fulham, it could make for some interesting discussions with Ryan Sessegnon.
This is because Manchester United have been strongly linked with Sessegnon, and were last month tipped by The Mail for a £25 million swoop.
Sessegnon could ask his potential new teammate about life at Old Trafford, but Borthwick-Jackson would know that if the Fulham man does make his big money move, it will rubber stamp his own exit from the Red Devils.
Borthwick-Jackson was highly promising under Louis van Gaal, playing for United’s first team, but loan spells at Wolves an Leeds have been disastrous.
Fulham could be a good move for him, and see him play alongside a player who could go on to seal his Old Trafford exit.
