Calvin Bassey secures Fulham victory with first Premier League goal

Nigeria’s Calvin Bassey attracts interest from Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal

Nigerian defender Calvin Bassey delivered a crucial match-winning goal for Fulham in their 2-1 victory over Nottingham Forest on Saturday, marking his first goal of the season.

Fulham took an early lead at Craven Cottage when Emile Smith Rowe found the net in the 15th minute.

However, the visitors responded before halftime, with Chris Wood equalising for Nottingham Forest, setting up a tense second half.

After the break, Bassey made the decisive impact.

Rising high to meet a cross, the Nigerian international powered a header past the Forest goalkeeper, restoring Fulham’s advantage.

The goal proved to be the winner, securing all three points for Marco Silva’s side.

It was a standout moment for the former Ajax defender, who continues to impress with his performances in the Premier League.

His contributions in both defence and attack further highlight his growing influence in Fulham’s squad.
