Lille dismiss Fulham and Manchester United interest in Edon Zhegrova

Date:

Edon Zhegrova (25) has been a key part of the Lille OSC side that has reached the league phase of the UEFA Champions League. With just hours remaining in the transfer window, LOSC have ruled out selling the Kosovan winger, despite interest from the Premier League.

It was Zhegrova who netted what was ultimately the all-important goal in the Champions League play-off. This season, just ike last season, the winger looks set to be a crucial player for Lille, who have defied expectations and retained many of their key players.

However, according to Le ParisienFulham had made concrete steps to sign Zhegrova and were readying an official offer. Reports had also linked Manchester United with a move for the forward, however, LOSC are holding firm in their stance that, with the club set to compete in the Champions League, they will not sell their star winger before the closure of the window.
