JUST IN ; Fulham want Wind !
Fulham and West Ham United are keen on signing Wolfsburg striker Jonas Wind in the summer
Wolfsburger Allgemeine Aller-Zeitung says that three Premier League clubs remain interested in the Danish international despite Wind currently enduring a 14-match scoreless spell. Fulham have been heavily linked with the 25 year-old during the past two transfer windows, but Wolfsburg were unwilling to cash in on the former Copenhagen centre forward.
That situation could change this summer, with the player open to testing himself in England’s top flight and Wolfsburg unlikely to qualify for Europe. Wind has scored 21 goals in 67 games since moving to Germany for £10m at the end of January 2021. He had previously found the net 46 times in 113 appearances at Copenhagen, with whom he won the Superliga in 2019. Wind has scored eight goals in 25 caps for Denmark, featuring in their squads for the Euro 2020 and the 2022 World Cup.
Fulham are reportedly keen on signing 25-year-old Danish striker Jonas Wind from Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg.
A report from WAZ has claimed that Fulham are keen on signing Jonas Wind, and they could look to make a move at the end of the season. The Cottagers are involved in a three-way Premier League battle for the Dane, with Wolverhampton Wanderers also interested in him.
The 25-year-old has done quite well for Wolfsburg this season, scoring ten goals across all competitions, and he has seven assists to his name as well. As iterated, two other Premier League clubs are also keen on him, making it a three-way battle. The Danish forward can operate as the centre forward as well as a false nine. He will add goals and creativity to the Fulham attack.
The West London club have not been able to score goals consistently this season, and they need to bring in a reliable attacker. Raul Jimenez has been quite underwhelming since joining Fulham, and the London club need to bring in an upgrade. It will be interesting to see if Fulham can secure an agreement with Bundesliga club Wolfsburg for Wind. They have also shown interest in other attackers, including Wilfried Zaha.
A move to the Premier League will be a tempting proposition for the 25-year-old, who is likely to be attracted to the idea of joining the London club. It would be a step up in his career, and he would get to compete at a high level. Fulham have a quality squad at their disposal, and there is no reason why they cannot push for a top-half finish and European qualification with the right additions. Wind could help them improve in the final third.
