Fulham are reportedly one of several English clubs who are considering a move for Borussia Monchengladbach defender Joe Scally.

Fulham are reportedly one of several English clubs that are interested in signing Borussia Monchengladbach defender Joe Scally.

The USA international signed for Monchengladbach from New York City FC in January 2021 for a reported €1.8m (£1.6m) fee.

Scally has gone on to make 58 appearances for die Fohlen across all competitions, contributing two goals and two assists.

The 20-year-old has featured regularly for Daniel Farke's side this season, starting 21 of the club's 25 Bundesliga games this season.

Monchengladbach's resolve could be tested in the summer with a number of clubs believed to be weighing up a potential move.

According to journalist Tom Bogert, Fulham are one of several English sides that are interested in recruiting the full-back.

The West London club currently have two senior right-backs on their books in the shape of Kenny Tete and Cedric Soares.

However, Soares is on loan from Arsenal and after featuring in just four games for Fulham, he could return to the Gunners at the end of the season.

As a result, Marco Silva will be tempted to sign a right-sided defender to provide competition for Tete, who has made 21 Premier League appearances this term, chipping in with four assists.

Scally is under contract until June 2026, which will leave Monchenglbach in a strong position in any potential negotiations.

The German club may also be reluctant to sanction a sale with several of their current squad already heading towards the exit door.

Ramy Bensebaini and Marcus Thuram are both set to leave the club when their respective contracts expire in June.

Newcastle United are among those looking to sign Thuram on a free transfer, and the Magpies have reportedly opened talks with the player's representatives over a free transfer.

There is also uncertainty surrounding the future of Kouadio Kone, who recently responded to speculation linking him with a move to the likes of Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
