Start Of Season Hub

Joao Palhinha / £17m / Sporting Lisbon

Marco Silva went in to the summer determined to add Portuguese pivot Palhinha to his squad and has got his way, bringing in a defensive midfielder that reads the game well and is unlikely to shy away from a battle. 3/5

Andreas Pereira / £10m / Manchester United

The Brazilian midfielder shone during a loan spell at Flamengo last season but his underlying stats suggest he overperformed in his home country. Fulham look to have overpaid for a player that's yet to prove he can cut it at Premier League level. 1/5

Manor Solomon / Loan / Shakhtar Donetsk

Fulham hope the Israel international is worth the wait after a protracted chase. The wide man is most dangerous when running at defenders, while he also has an eye for goal and if he can pack on some muscle he should hold his own in games. 3/5

Kevin Mbabu / £6.4m / Wolfsburg

The Swiss centre-back didn't make the grade at Newcastle previously but has improved since leaving Tyneside in 2017, proving himself at Wolfsburg. However, whether the tough-tackling, pacey defender is good enough to improve Fulham's defence is questionable. 2/5

Bernd Leno / £8m / Arsenal

On the surface, Fulham have got themselves a bargain, upgrading their goalkeeping position with a Germany international for a reasonable price. However, while Leno is a great shot stopper, he's prone to errors and lacks command of his area. 3/5

Shane Duffy / Loan / Brighton

A centre-back with Premier League and international experience who offers something different from their alternatives. Not an eye-catching signing however and doesn't improve the first 11 massively. 2/5
