AC Milan signed the defender from Monaco in 2021, but two years later he has become surplus to requirements at the San Siro.
He has been left out of the Rossoneri squad that will be travelling to the US for their pre-season tour and has been asked to find a new club.
Bologna and Nice have shown a concrete interest in getting their hands on Ballo-Toure in the ongoing transfer window, while in the Premier League, Sean Dyche’s Everton are interested in taking him to Goodison Park.
But now according to Sky Italia, Fulham have joined the race to secure a deal to take the defender to the Premier League this summer.
And it has been claimed that Cottagers have marched ahead of others in the race to sign the left-back ahead of the new season.
Fulham are in contact with the left-back’s representatives and AC Milan over getting a deal done to sign him.
A move to England seemingly appeals to Ballo-Toure who is keen to sort out his next club as soon as possible and it remains to be seen if Everton will now firm up their efforts to sign him.
However, Fulham are now the top contenders to land the former Paris Saint-Germain player this summer.
