The Dutch winger quickly made a name for himself there and, as a result, earned himself a move to Serie A. After two relatively pedestrian seasons under the stewardship of Eusebio di Francesco, Kluivert was unable to establish himself as a first-team regular and was subsequently sent out on loan for the 2020\/21 and 2021\/22 seasons to <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/07\/timo-werner-chelsea-rb-leipzig\/\" target=\"_self\">RB Leipzig<\/a> and OGC Nice respectively. The latter was the more impressive spell of the two as the winger managed four goals and five assists in 27 Ligue 1 appearances.<\/p>\n<p>After a season playing under manager <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/07\/19\/top-10-european-football-managers-watchlist\/\" target=\"_self\">Christophe Galtier<\/a> in Nice, The Dutchman finds himself back in the Eternal City and it appears England could be his next destination. Fulham are hoping to make smarter moves in the transfer window this time around and so a move for Kluivert poses a lot more questions than answers.<\/p>\n<p>The Dutch winger has shown a moment of magic at his various destinations but consistency is the key. From Edwin van der Sar to Ryan Babel, several of Kluivert\u2019s fellow countrymen have represented the Cottagers. When it comes to the player, \u201cHis priority is to join the English club as soon as possible\u201d and it seems that Roma manager <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/07\/20\/paulo-dybala-signs-for-roma\/\" target=\"_self\">Jose Mourinho<\/a> is keen to move him on from the Stadio Olimpico.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/03\/bernd-leno-signs-for-fulham\/\" target=\"_self\">Fulham Confirm Signing of German International<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>A More Astute Transfer Window From Fulham<\/h3>\n<p>Fulham were hugely criticised for their dealings in the transfer window last time around in the Premier League. Coming off the back of Aleksandar Mitrovic\u2019s record-breaking season in the Championship and then a brace on the opening day against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/21\/liverpool-starting-lineup-prediction-vs-manchester-united\/\" target=\"_self\">Liverpool<\/a>, the Serbia international is in need of reinforcement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/01\/31\/liverpool-reach-agreement-to-sign-fabio-carvalho\/\" target=\"_self\">Fabio Carvalho<\/a> has made the move to Anfield whilst former Red Harry Wilson has made his loan to Craven Cottage permanent. Most of Silva\u2019s business has been done further down the pitch, including Arsenal goalkeeper <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/03\/bernd-leno-signs-for-fulham\/\" target=\"_self\">Bernd Leno<\/a> and Portuguese midfielder <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/07\/04\/fulham-joao-palhinha-from-sporting-lisbon\/\" target=\"_self\">Joao Palhinha<\/a>.
