From winning the EFL Championship in 2021/22 to impressing in their return to the top-flight to reaching the EFL Cup semifinals for the first time in club history, it has certainly been a memorable spell at Fulham for Tosin Adarabioyo. However, that chapter may be coming to an end sooner rather than later, with the 26-year-old center half showing little interest in renewing his contract past the summer of 2024, and Marco Silva's side may very well be forced to cash in on him this month in order to avoid losing him on a free.

Born in Manchester to Nigerian parents, Adarabioyo is eligible to play for the Three Lions or Super Eagles, having played for England at the youth level. After 13 years at City's academy, he broke into the first team in 2016 and became the then-youngest player to represent the club in the Champions League, but ultimately failed to make his mark under Pep Guardiola, who loaned him out to West Bromwich Albion and Blackburn Rovers before agreeing to part ways with him in 2020 for a fee of £2 million with City retaining a 20% sell-on clause.

Tosin Adarabioyo, the English born man of Nigerian descent, has been as a key figure for Fulham over the past few seasons, from winning the Championship in 21/22 as well as their impressive performances since their Premier League return. A former Manchester City academy graduate, the 26-year-old center half has impressed with his composure, aerial prowess, and eye catching tackles and promises to be a bargain in a summer that could see him leave London on a free transfer.
