Rayan Cherki rejects the opportunity to join Fulham

According to Fabrice Hawkins, Olympique Lyonnais attacking midfielder Rayan Cherki (21) has rejected the opportunity to join Fulham.

The 21-year-old has informed his boyhood club that he will not join the Premier League side and the West London club have also been informed of his decision. OL are looking to sell Cherki before the transfer window closes and he is currently training away from the first-team squad in the loft with other players the Rhône club hope to sell. There are no ongoing discussions between the Lyon academy graduate and Fulham.

This latest development arrives as Fulham have had an offer accepted by Les Gones to sign the France U21 international. However, Cherki is not interested in moving to Fulham and a deal has collapsed. Moves to Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig have already failed to materialise for the Frenchman this window. With the attacking midfielder told to find a new club, it remains to be seen if he will finally get his move before the end of the window.
