Fulham striker Carlos Vinicius is on the verge of joining Galatasaray on loan for the remainder of the season, according to The Athletic. Fulham, seeking attacking reinforcement in January due to Raul Jimenez’s hamstring injury, secured a loan deal for Chelsea forward Armando Broja on the transfer deadline day.
Broja’s loan move to Fulham involved a fee of £4 million. In a strategic move, Fulham aimed to facilitate incoming transfers by offloading a player, and Vinicius emerged as the likely candidate to be sacrificed.
Chelsea have now joined the race to sign the Atalanta defender Giorgio Scalvini at the end of the season.
The 20-year-old central defender has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent months and Manchester United are keen on securing his services as per Fichajes . It will be interesting to see if Chelsea can beat their Premier League rivals and sign the Italian international in the coming months.
