Fulham have reportedly submitted a new $38 million bid for Pepi after a previous $35 million offer was rejected, with PSV still indicating they want to keep the striker despite Pepi recently suffering an arm injury.

Chelsea fans turned on Marc Cucurella after he was sent off at Fulham for denying a clear goalscoring chance, adding to Chelsea’s already high red-card total this season. Cucurella hauled back Harry Wilson after a long ball sent him through. VAR upheld the DOGSO red card, ruling the holding offence did not continue into the box.

Florian Wirtz said he was convinced his goal would be ruled offside after a long VAR check in Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at Fulham. The match swung late when Harrison Reed scored in stoppage time to deny Liverpool victory.

Raheem Sterling is open to moves beyond London as he looks to leave Chelsea after being left out of domestic and Champions League squads and training away from the first team. West Ham and Fulham remain linked, but staying in the capital is not being treated as a hard requirement.

Fulham have had an opening $33 million bid rejected for PSV striker Ricardo Pepi and are expected to return with an improved offer. PSV are under no pressure to sell after tying the forward to a long-term deal.

Fulham want added firepower for the run-in and view Pepi as a primary January target.

Tottenham are not planning to sign a new goalkeeper in January despite Guglielmo Vicario’s shaky spell and criticism from sections of the fanbase. Costly moments against Fulham and Nottingham Forest have put the Italian under scrutiny and drawn jeers from supporters. Thomas Frank insists the club still view Vicario as a “very good” keeper and strong shot-stopper, while acknowledging areas for improvement, especially in distribution. Spurs are working with him on those weaknesses and remain committed to backing him rather than pursuing a mid-season replacement.

Erling Haaland became the fastest player in history to reach 100 Premier League goals, hitting the opener in Manchester City’s wild 5-4 win at Fulham to bring up his century in just 111 matches and end a rare mini-drought in front of goal.
