Fulham ‘consider £12m move for Arsenal defender Calum Chambers as Scott Parker looks to strengthen’

Fulham are reportedly interested in signing Arsenal defender Calum Chambers.

Chambers produced some impressive performances while on loan when Fulham were last in the Premier League during the 2018-19 season.

Although the Cottagers were relegated during that campaign, Chambers emerged with much credit and is still highly thought of at Fulham.

As reported by The Sun, Scott Parker is considering signing Chambers on a permanent basis, with the centre-back potentially costing £12million.

Chambers hasn’t played since he suffered a serious knee injury in December but is closing in on a return.

Chambers mainly featured in midfield during his previous spell at Fulham and was named the club’s player of the year.

However, if he was to rejoin Fulham it is anticipated that he would be used at centre-back.

Arsenal have a host of centre-backs on their books and may have to sell some players in order to raise funds to strengthen their squad.
