Fulham are interested in signing Roma star Leonardo Spinazzola this summer as Liverpool move in for left back Antonee Robinson.

More players have turned out for both Fulham and Roma than you would imagine.

Maarten Stekelenburg, Vincenzo Montella, John Arne Riise, Stefano Okaka, Pierre Wome, Olivier Dacourt all spring to mind, as does current Roma defender Chris Smalling.

That many players turning out for both clubs is a little strange and there could yet be another name joining that list in the coming months.

Fulham want Leonardo Spinazzola

Reports from AS Roma Live suggest that Fulham have shown an interest in signing Roma ace Leonardo Spinazzola.

Some will remember Spinazzola for some impressive displays at Euro 2020 before suffering a major injury.

The 30-year-old has been in and out of the side this season, recording 14 Serie A starts and six substitute appearances.

Despite predominantly being a left back, Spinazzola is actually right-footed and has regularly shown his speed and technical ability at Roma.

The report claims that Fulham are looking at Spinazzola because star left back Antonee Robinson is attracting huge interest.

It’s stated that Liverpool and Manchester City have already made contact with Robinson’s agents to try and discuss a summer move.

Fulham allegedly want around £35million for Robinson, who has gone from strength to strength this season.

We wouldn’t be surprised to see the likes of Liverpool moving for Robinson this summer – he has truly been that good this season.

Replacing Robinson with a 30-year-old doesn’t really get us excited though and we would rather see Fulham try and find another Robinson.

That may be difficult but if big money comes in for Robinson, committing to replacing him with a player who holds little resale value down the line may leave some what a little uninspired.
