Josh King: Fulham make major decision on Man United target’s potential January exit

Fulham have firmly ruled out the possibility of releasing their star midfielder Josh King ahead of the January transfer window, according to recent reports. The club remains confident in the 19-year-old's abilities despite a surge in interest from Manchester United. United are reportedly willing to pay more than £50 million for King, following his impressive performances this season, including two goals and one assist in seven games for Fulham.

The club's determination to retain King suggests they are considering him as a potential long-term successor to veteran Bruno Fernandes, who has struggled for form this season. However, if Fulham's current relegation battle persists into January, United might be more tempted to pursue King, given his undoubted quality and potential as a future leader at the club.
