Newcastle United and West Ham United are targeting Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo, according to Evening Standard.
Adarabioyo played a critical role in Fulham’s promotion to the Premier League and his performances caught the eyes of the Premier League sides.
According to Evening Standard, West Ham, and Newcastle United have sent scouts to watch the player several times, while playing in the Championship this season and they are impressed with what they saw.
Both teams are now ready to go head to head for the players who signed for the Cottagers from Manchester City at the beginning of last season.
However, Fulham’s manager Marcus Silva rates the 24-year-old highly and won’t entertain any bid for the defender.
Fulham wants to make an impact in the Premier League this term and they see Adarabioyo as one of the important players who can keep them in the topflight.
Fulham sealed instant promotion back to the Premier League with a win against Preston last week and needs at least a point from the last two games against Bournemouth and Swansea to clinch the top spot.
