Premier League giants chase Fulham youngster Samuel Amissah
Fulham’s highly rated teenager Samuel Amissah is set to be at the heart of a major Premier League tug of war this summer, with Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea all keen on the 18-year-old centre-back.
Having stepped up to senior level this season, Amissah has already been named on the bench seven times by Marco Silva, underlining how quickly he has emerged at Craven Cottage.
With his contract due to expire in three months, a move within England would likely be settled by a tribunal, while a switch abroad could come with a smaller compensation fee. That possibility has attracted interest from European clubs such as Ajax, Juventus and Marseille, but English sides are believed to be pushing hardest as they look to secure one of the country’s brightest young defenders.
Amissah’s versatility only adds to his appeal, with the youngster capable of playing at centre-back, full-back or as a defensive midfielder. Seen as a player who can grow into a Premier League regular in the coming years, he has already been closely tracked by Arsenal, while Chelsea and Manchester United are eager to bolster their youth ranks with top emerging talent.
