Fulham have increased their bid for Rennes defender Abdelhamid Ait Boudlal, with the Morocco international wanted by the club as they continue efforts to strengthen their squad.
According to The Athletic, Fulham are pushing to advance a move for Ait Boudlal, who is currently with French side Rennes. The defender has emerged as a target, and the latest development indicates that Fulham have returned with an improved proposal in an attempt to move talks forward.nnNo fee has been confirmed, and there is no indication yet that Rennes have accepted the offer. The situation therefore remains open, with Fulham understood to be trying to test the French club’s stance on a player who is attracting their attention. Ait Boudial’s profile as a Moroccan international makes him a notable defensive target, and Fulham‘s decision to increase their bid suggests he is viewed as more than a passing option. However, without confirmation of an agreement between the clubs, the transfer is not yet at an advanced public stage.nnFulham will now wait to see whether their improved approach is enough to bring Rennes into further discussions. If the bid is rejected, the club may have to decide whether to raise their offer again or move on to alternative defensive options.
For now, Ait Boudlal remains a Rennes player, but Fulham‘s interest is active and the increased bid has put the defender’s future firmly in focus.
