Emile Smith Rowe Leaves Arsenal Training Camp for Fulham Medical Ahead of £34m Move.

Emile Smith Rowe set to bid farewell to Arsenal and embark on a new chapter in his career. The talented midfielder is leaving the Gunners’ pre-season tour in the United States to undergo a medical at Fulham, ahead of a £34 million transfer.

Fulham is breaking their transfer record to secure Smith Rowe’s services. The deal involves an initial payment of £27 million with an additional £7 million in potential add-ons. This substantial investment reflects Fulham’s confidence in the player’s abilities.

Smith Rowe’s career at Arsenal has been marred by injuries and inconsistent appearances. Despite three caps for England, he struggled to establish himself in Mikel Arteta’s starting eleven. The move to Fulham presents an opportunity for the 24-year-old to reignite his career and showcase his talents consistently.

He could make his Fulham debut as early as Friday when they face Benfica. His inclusion will bolster Fulham’s attacking options and provide creativity to their midfield.

Crystal Palace had shown interest in Smith Rowe, but concerns over the financial risk led them to back away. Fulham, on the other hand, seized the opportunity, recognizing the player’s potential impact.

Smith Rowe will be Fulham’s second signing this summer after academy product Ryan Sessegnon returned following the expiration of his Tottenham contract. Sessegnon, who left Fulham for Tottenham in 2019, hopes to revive his career after injury setbacks.
