Bayern Extend Kusi-Asare and Loan 18-Year-Old to Fulham With Option to Buy

Club leaders frame the move as a step toward first-team experience with close monitoring.

Overview

  • Bayern announced a new contract for the Swedish youth international alongside a season-long loan to the Premier League club.
  • Fulham confirmed the agreement includes an option to make the transfer permanent, with CEO Tony Khan welcoming the striker.
  • Sporting director Christoph Freund said Kusi-Asare has outstanding potential and should gain valuable minutes in England as Bayern track his progress.
  • Reports the previous day claimed the loan had fallen through due to missed paperwork, but both clubs later confirmed the deal.
  • The 1.96-metre forward, who debuted for Bayern’s seniors in April, is on Sweden Under-21 duty and is expected to join Fulham’s first-team group.
