Fulham have now reached a ‘full agreement’ to sign Paris Saint-Germain defender Layvin Kurzawa, according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano.

The Lowdown: Approved by Silva

The Frenchman was told he could leave the Parc des Princes earlier in the summer after falling out of favour under Christophe Galtier, and the Premier League quickly emerged as his most likely destination.

The 29-year-old entered talks with the Cottagers, who made completing the deal a ‘priority’, before Marco Silva personally approved the club’s pursuit of their target.

The Latest: Fulham agree Kurzawa deal

Taking to Twitter, Romano confirmed that Fulham have completed a deal to sign Kurzawa, who is set to arrive at Craven Cottage on Wednesday. He wrote:

“Layvin Kurzawa to Fulham, deal now done and completed. Full agreement in principle — gonna be a loan deal, no buy option and no permanent move. Kurzawa will fly to London today. Here we go.”

The Verdict: Alongside Willian?

Former Chelsea star Willian has been training with Fulham over the summer and is close to being unveiled as a new signing after undergoing a medical, and Kurzawa will soon be following in his footsteps.

The PSG ace, who once dubbed himself ‘crazy’, has racked up 23 assists throughout his career and has won an outstanding 18 trophies during his time in Ligue 1, showing the attacking prowess and elite level experience he will bring to the capital.

Silva has been desperately searching for a new left-back to provide cover for Joe Bryan, who is in advanced talks to join Nice, and Kurzawa appears to be ideal candidate he’s been looking for.
