Manchester United monitoring Fulham talent Josh King
Manchester United is monitoring Fulham's 19-year-old attacker Josh King, who is reportedly open to a move to Old Trafford. Fulham is believed to be willing to consider offers exceeding £50 million for the highly-rated midfielder, though the club has expressed no intention of selling him during the upcoming January transfer window.
King, an England Under-21 international, is under contract until 2029 and has become a key player for Fulham despite the team's struggles at the bottom of the Premier League. While major clubs including Liverpool, Arsenal, Barcelona, and Borussia Dortmund have been linked to the player, Fulham aims to retain him for the remainder of the current campaign.
However, sources suggest that Fulham's resolve may be tested if the club remains in a relegation battle by January. While the club is expected to demand a substantial fee for any departure, the pressure to sell key assets could increase if results do not improve under head coach Álvaro Arbeloa.
