Lukic, who had previously been linked with Leeds, now appears to be a key target for Marco Silva’s side.

Fulham have also been credited w𒅌ith Andre this mon💮th.

Now, they’ve become the latest team to se﷽t their sights on Sheffield Uni💮ted’s Norwegian number eight.

Fulham could have to fight off the likes of Liverpool and Newcastle to secure Berge’s signature.

Fulham want Liverpool and Newcastle target Berge

Solhekol shared the latest update on Berge’s future , saying: “Fulham in talks to sign ✅Norway midfielder Sander Berge from Sheffield United for £20m plus add ons.”

A report from at the start of the month suggested that Liverpool really liked Berge.

Jurgen Klopp’s midfield has been an area of concern this season, but they have their🏅 sights set on bigger targets in the summer.

The likes of Jude Bellingham and Moises Caicedo have been linked with a move to Anfield i𓆉n recent weeks.

They’re currently weighing up a bid for the 25-year-old, although their move for Anthony Gordon may price them out of a bid.

Arguably Fuꦗlham’s best player this season has been Joao Palhinha, who was signed fro✅m Sporting in the summer.

Right now, Silva doesn’t have any qualit✨y cover for the Portuguese in case he picks up an injury or a suspension.

Berge would certainly be an upgrade on Fulham’s current options, but the £20m fee seems very st🌞ജeep for a back-up player.

He has score𝔍d more goals and provided more assists than any of Fulham🌄’s other midfielder options this season.

However, Sheffield United are also pushing hard tꦦo be promoted and may not want to lose one of their key players.

Fulh🎃am can’t compete financially with Liverpool or Newcastle, and so if either team come in for Berge, they may miss out.
