Talk about a plot twist!
In a move that mimics some shenanigans in last summer’s transfer window, Fulham have pulled off a heist it seems.
Many will remember last year when Liverpool were looking to sign Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia.
However, Chelsea usurped their English Premier League rivals and snapped both midfielders up.
The deal for Romeo Lavia, especially, seemed like a move to spit the Merseyside club.
Liverpool had been believed to be in pole position to sign the young Belgian from Southampton before they turned their attention to Caicedo, who everyone thought was joining Chelsea.
Out of nowhere, Chelsea went in and made a bid for Romeo Lavia.
Even when it remained clear that Moises Caicedo would join the London side, they still went ahead and signed Lavia anyway.
And we’re witnessing something similar happen in this window it seems.

Fulham have been heavily linked with a move for Scott McTominay.
It was reported earlier today that the club had set the asking price for the Scotland international.
In the meantime, it was revealed that United had a bid turned down for Burnley midfielder Sander Berge.
The Norway international had been identified as a player to bring in to strengthen the midfield at Old Trafford.
But it seems that Fulham have sidestepped the McTominay deal and have looked to hijack United’s merge for Berge instead.
Sky Sports have just shared breaking news that Fulham have made a bid for Manchester United target Sander Berge.
The official is £20m plus performance related add ons.
Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth says that Fulham are still waiting to hear back on the bid they’ve made.
In any case, it’s a bit of a bombshell poker move from the Cottagers.
Are they waiting to see if United reduce their asking price for Scott McTominay?
Or are they genuinely looking to bring Sander Berge to their club?
It sure is going to make it really interesting over the coming days as to what happens in regards to the future of Sander Berge.
What is clear is that there are more than one club interesting in signing the midfielder.
