Fulham have agreed a £27m deal with Manchester City to sign forward Oscar Bobb.

Sky Sports News understands a 20 per cent sell-on clause and matching rights have been inserted in the deal. Personal terms are ready for the 22-year-old Norway international to sign.

Fulham have also made a bid worth £28m for PSV Eindhoven striker Ricardo Pepi as they look to strengthen Marco Silva's side before Monday's deadline.

Several teams in the Bundesliga and Premier League were interested in signing Bobb, but the Cottagers are now pushing ahead to bring in the player.

Fulham are bringing in Bobb after Adama Traore completed a move to West Ham to reunite with Nuno Espirito Santo.

Speaking last week, Man City boss Pep Guardiola had indicated Bobb was nearing an exit.

When asked if the Norway international wanted to leave the club, he said: "I think so."

He has not played since starting City's Carabao Cup match against Brentford on December 17, where he was forced off with an injury inside 20 minutes.

Bobb joined City as a youngster from Valarenga in 2019 and broke into the first-team squad in 2023-24.

However, he missed all of last season with a broken leg suffered in pre-season.

Bobb has made 15 appearances for City this term, while also helping Norway qualify for the World Cup.

Fulham have also made a bid worth £28m for PSV Eindhoven striker Ricardo Pepi.

The USA international, who has scored 11 goals in all competitions this season, was a target for Fulham last summer. They had a bid worth £21m rejected.

It is understood PSV are considering the latest offer for Pepi, whose contract runs until 2030.

However, the Dutch club want to sign a replacement before allowing Pepi's proposed move to Fulham progress.

The South Korea international has scored 10 goals in all competitions this season. His contract at Genk runs until the summer of 2028.
