Chelsea and Coventry City had already been tracking the 23-year-old, but Fulham are now said to be pushing hardest to complete a return, according to Africafoot. The west London club see Godo as a genuine difference-maker who could slot straight into their attack.<\/span><\/p>\n Godo left Fulham for Strasbourg last year and has since flourished in Alsace, contributing 16 goals and five assists to establish himself as one of the most dangerous wide players in France’s top flight. That form has put him firmly on the radar of several Premier League sides looking to strengthen out wide this summer, with reports elsewhere suggesting his overall contribution across all competitions may be even higher.<\/span><\/p>\n London-born but an Ivory Coast international, Godo came through the youth ranks at non-league Dartford before joining Fulham, where he struggled to nail down a regular starting role and spent time on loan at Wigan Athletic. His move to Strasbourg represented a fresh start, and the leap in output since arriving in France has transformed his stock among Premier League recruitment departments.<\/span><\/p>\n To win him over, Fulham are said to be offering Godo a central role in their sporting project along with the promise of regular Premier League football – an approach designed to sway a player who will have no shortage of suitors to weigh up before deciding on his next move.<\/span><\/p>\n Any deal will not come cheap. Strasbourg, who hold Godo’s registration until June 2030, are under no pressure to sell and are unlikely to let him leave on the cheap. Transfermarkt currently values the winger at \u20ac22m, though his club may demand a fee well above that figure given his form and the length of his contract.<\/span><\/p>\n With Strasbourg negotiating from a position of strength, Fulham know they will need to match the Alsace club’s financial demands if they are to complete what would be seen as a triumphant homecoming for a player they let go only a year ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chelsea and Coventry City had already been tracking the 23-year-old, but Fulham are now said…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18148,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18147","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chelsea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18147","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=18147"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18147\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/18148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=18147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=18147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=18147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
