"Sources have told BBC Sport Marco Silva's side are close to reaching an agreement for the 22-year-old. Bobb has fallen down the pecking order at City after the January arrival of Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth. "I know there are rumours, I know there are talks," manager Pep Guardiola said on Saturday after City's win over Wolves. "But I don't know right now." Asked if Bobb wants to leave the club, Guardiola replied: "I think so.""
"Bobb, who has also had interest from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund, has featured 15 times for City this season without scoring. He last played on 17 December against Brentford in the Carabao Cup, when he hobbled off injured inside the opening 20 minutes. Fulham have lost only one of their last seven Premier League games under Silva and sit seventh in the table following their 2-1 win over Brighton on Saturday."
Fulham are close to agreeing a deal to sign 22-year-old winger Oscar Bobb from Manchester City. Bobb has dropped down the pecking order at City following Antoine Semenyo's January arrival and has attracted interest from Borussia Dortmund. Pep Guardiola acknowledged rumours and suggested Bobb may want to leave. Bobb has made 15 appearances for City this season without scoring and last played on 17 December when he went off injured in the Carabao Cup. He featured six times for Norway this year, helped them qualify for the World Cup, and would link up with compatriot Sander Berge. Bobb missed most of last season with a leg fracture. Fulham have also bid £28m for Ricardo Pepi and sit seventh after recent good form under Marco Silva.
