Fulham’s pursuit of Everton target Ernest Nuamah from Lyon has stalled on deadline day, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke.

 

The West London club have been in talks with Lyon to secure a deal to take the 20-year-old winger to Craven Cottage.

 

The negotiations spilled over to the final day of the transfer but it seemed Fulham could be making progress in their pursuit of the winger.

 

 

Everton were also interested but the Merseyside club were unlikely to sign the winger on the final day of the window.

 

However, it has been claimed that Nuamah might not even end up at Fulham before the window closes tonight.

 

 

The talks between the two clubs have stalled and there is no deal in sign for the winger to move to Fulham.

 

With only hours left in the window, Fulham are running out of time to find a breakthrough in the negotiations.

 

 

It remains to be seen whether Everton try to take advantage of the situation by reviving their interest in the Lyon winger in the coming hours.
