A highly productive summer transfer window saw Fulham sign 11 players to the First Team squad, adding competition to every position on the pitch.
Speaking after the Club added four more on deadline day, Tony Khan reflected on the business done:
"I’m thrilled with the overall business that we’ve done this summer in the transfer window. Unlike the windows following our prior promotion campaigns in 2018 and 2020 via Play-Off wins at Wembley, by virtue of last season’s league title and automatic promotion, this summer we had the benefit of additional time for planning.
"While market values were largely inflated early in the window, these additional weeks for preparation gave us time to negotiate with our trading counterparties, and for our management team, Marco, Alistair, and myself, to strategise as to how we could best strengthen the squad while still enacting some measure of financial restraint to ensure the Club’s sustainability. We worked hard throughout this summer as a recruitment team to ensure that Marco’s squad will be as strong as possible for this Premier League season and in future seasons.
"Each of the players that have joined us have great attributes that complement what we already have in our squad, each bringing their unique talents, their hard work ethics, and their desire to play for Marco and succeed in the Premier League, which means that we have a strong team that will work well together both on and off the pitch.
"I want to thank the entire Fulham FC staff for their hard work, persistence and patience throughout the transfer window. In the most competitive negotiating market on the planet, we’ve worked hard for the betterment of the Club, and now I’m confident that Marco and his squad can continue producing strong results in the Premier League.
"Progress under Marco Silva has been phenomenal and we’re all extremely happy that he is with us at Fulham. Thank you Marco!
"Come on Fulham!"
