Would Breel Embolo Suit English Football?

It has been well documented that Fulham may be in need of a striker before the start of the new season. It remains to be seen if Jokanovic can convince Moussa Dembele to extend his stay at the club.

Ross McCormack may be in search of pastures new within the promised land of the Premier League. If he were to depart the club, the sale would supply the finances to fund new signings.

Fulham will need to splash out big on their strike force to replace such prolific partnership.

Breel Embolo of FC Basel in Switzerland, could be the perfect fit for English football. But his signature will be hard to obtain.

At 19 years old, Embolo is already a full international for the Swiss National Team, making his debut in March 2015. He is currently representing them at Euro 2016.

Last season saw the 19 year old notch 10 goals in 27 games in the Swiss Super League. As Basel won their 19th domestic title.

The pacey forward is strong as he is quick which will suit English style of play perfectly.

A player of his calibre will be in hot demand but not impossible to sign, First team playing time may factor in his decision, That could work in Fulham’s favour.

The young Swiss is versatile in attack being able to be deployed on either Wing.

Will Fulham be fended off by transfer fee believed to be in the region of £15 million?
