Leeds United have agreed a long-term contract with Fulham attacker Harry Wilson to become their first signing of the summer on a free transfer.
The 29-year-old Wales international is out of contract next week, although the move remains subject to a medical and the formal signing of terms in the coming days.
His departure would be a significant blow to Fulham, who offered their player of the season several contracts in an attempt to keep him.
He registered 11 goals and eight assists in 38 appearances in all competitions last season - an average of one goal involvement every other game.
How are you feeling about prospect of losing Wilson to a Premier League rival on a free transfer? Were you hopeful he would sign a contract extension or was it time for him to move on?

But Ipswich have protected themselves and the triple promotion-winning manager and will still bank compensation despite McKenna walking away from Portman Road.
There remains the possibility it could be negotiated down closer to next year's 1 July cut off to ensure Ipswich do not lose McKenna for free, but the current figure is £8m.
The former Manchester United assistant quit Ipswich despite leading them back to the Premier League at the first attempt.
He took charge of in 2021 when they were in League One and guided them to three promotions in the past four seasons, two of which have taken the club into the top flight.
McKenna, who was born in London and raised in Northern Ireland, had two years remaining on his contract at Ipswich after signing a four-year deal in 2024.

With the countdown to the 2026-27 Premier League fixture release well and truly on, we asked for your stories of opening-day games - both good and bad - that have stuck in your minds most. And you delivered.
Here are some of your replies:
Rob: The best was our first game in the Premier League away at Old Trafford. Even though we lost, we showed the country how good we were. There are too many to mention for the worst, especially in the dark days, but one more recently was losing 2-1 at Hull City in the Championship in 2015 - a nightmare journey and a terrible performance.
William: One of my best moments was our first taste of Premier League football. We played away to Manchester United and took the game to them before losing right at the end.
David: The best opening game was in 2022 when I was watching Fulham face Liverpool from a Greek island, as Aleksandar Mitrovic proceeded to bully their back four and show that we were ready to compete at the top level.
Hugh: The opening day of the 2012-13 season - Fulham 5-0 Norwich. I think it is the only day in my life that I've seen us top of the Premier League!
Tom: Best memory is beating Bolton 4-1 to go top of the league in 2002. Worst memory is losing to Arsenal 3-0 in 2020, knowing we were in for a tough season.
Richard: First day of the season 1996-97 v Hereford - it just felt like it was the start of something big and the whole mood changed. Then the first day of the season 2022-23 versus Liverpool - we showed we could live with the best of them and we would not stay a yo-yo team.

'Very exciting candidates' - Khan on Fulham boss searchpublished at 16:29 BST 17 June

Fulham vice chairman and director of football operations, Tony Khan, says there are "exciting candidates" prepared to take over from Marco Silva.
According to Khan, Silva's departure came as a shock to the Fulham board but the club are actively working on his replacement.
"It's very important to look to the next step, being we have to bring in a new coach and it's something that we are working on," he told Fulham TV, external.
"We've been actively talking and working to find somebody to come in because as I've said, the expectation here has been for a while that Marco was going to stay.
"It's been less than two weeks now that we found out that Marco had changed his mind. He had really indicated that he wanted to stay and was planning to, but we also understand why [he is leaving].
"But I'm very positive for the future.
"There's been a lot of names mentioned in the press and it's interesting because it's going very well and there's been a few great conversations in particular, and we've got a few people that the board is talking to who are very exciting candidates.
"I have seen a lot of the press where there have been people we've been linked to, or it says they were the front-runner or there were conversations with people, and we've never talked to or never even had a conversation about."

What can we learn from Arbeloa's time at Real Madrid?published at 08:09 BST 16 June

By the time Alvaro Arbeloa was promoted from Real Madrid Castilla - sitting fourth in their Primera RFEF group at the time - he had created a football identity of teams with personality and wanting to dominate.
Yet at the first team, he says he couldn't simply be himself.
As he put it: "I had to be the manager I had to be."
So his time as first-team manager at Real Madrid may be no real reference for Fulham.
At Castilla, his side was built around what he calls offensive joy - possession and pressing without the ball were the two pillars.
Arbeloa was always willing to go more direct when a match demanded it.
On paper, it was a 4-3-3; in practice, one midfielder pushed on almost as a number 10, shifting the shape into a 4-2-3-1 with a clear reference point up front, and wide areas mattered enormously.
Something was non-negotiable: intensity. Arbeloa's defensive model is built on relentless pressing - this was not a team that wanted to sit back and defend its own box, whatever else changes around it.
Much of that thinking has roots in the dressing rooms he played in.
At Liverpool, Rafa Benitez left him with the example of a coach obsessed with improving individual players, constantly talking to them, constantly correcting.
Back at Real Madrid from 2009, Manuel Pellegrini showed him a coach who loved pace in the game, with the wings left free to exploit it.
From Jose Mourinho, who took charge at the Bernabeu during his playing days there, Arbeloa points to the way he led and demanded maximum effort every day, a meticulously prepared coach whose training was built entirely around his model of play.
Carlo Ancelotti and Vicente del Bosque, the latter from his time with Spain, taught him something different again - that tactics alone aren't enough.
As Arbeloa sees it, a coach who can't manage the group is "doomed to fail" - however sharp his ideas on the pitch.
'A risk for both parties' - fans on expected Arbeloa appointmentpublished at 14:53 BST 15 June

We asked for your views on what you make of Alvaro Arbeloa's prospective appointment. Is his lack of experience a concern? Or is he the right man to follow on from Marco Silva?
Here are some of your comments:
PC: As the club tries to pivot to a more youth-based recruitment strategy, this move makes sense. Let's hope he can take Fulham to that next level. It's a big come-down from Real Madrid though, and a risk for both parties.
Maurice: A poor choice. Unproven at a high level, and has no Premier League experience. Just a gamble, with no plan from Mr Khan.
Joel: I am excited. He's a relatively unknown manager but look at Andoni Iraola and Keith Andrews - they've done very well, and I'd never heard of them before. Arbeloa is quite attacking, apparently a good man-manager and likes to use youth, and we have a good academy to pluck from. I wasn't excited about Silva and that turned out great. I was happy with the Claudio Ranieri appointment and that turned out bad. So let's give the guy a chance. I'm quite optimistic.
Derek: Arbeloa is absolutely the wrong appointment. He will not be able to handle the less talented players in our squad and his playing style demands very quick transition, which I feel we lack the quality to achieve. His ability to succeed may rely on the club's willingness to bring in 'his type' of player. I hope I'm wrong.
Robbie: Hopefully, he will bring that Spanish flair to the banks of the Thames, which will be exciting to watch. The experience might be minimal, but if he has learned from some of the best and can bring perhaps some of the younger Spanish footballing talent with him, then I feel he has a chance. I suspect Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, Brighton and Brentford fans felt apprehensive about their respective recent manager appointments, but look what they've achieved.
Jonathan: This has sacked by Christmas written all over it! This is a last-minute, panicked hire. The club (Tony Khan) has admitted they thought Silva was staying, and they had no plan B. It's shambolic.
Bob: I think he will do well. He knows the Premier League as he's played in it. Of course, going from player to manager is a big step. More on his shoulders to get it right. The team need to believe in what they are being asked to do. He needs to find out the best course to steer. Get the team to change too many draws into wins.

Fulham are in advanced talks to appoint Alvaro Arbeloa as a replacement for outgoing manager Marco Silva.
The 43-year-old has spent his entire coaching career at Madrid, working his way up from the youth teams to the interim manager position last season having replaced incoming Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso midway through the campaign.
As a player, he had two spells at Madrid and also played in the Premier League for both Liverpool and West Ham.
What do you make of Arbeloa's prospective appointment? Is his lack of experience a concern? Or is he the right man to follow on from Silva?
'I don't think we should sell anyone' - Fan's views on keep, loan, sellpublished at 17:52 BST 12 June

We asked for your views on who you think Fulham should keep, loan or sell.
Here are some of your comments:
Oliver:Keep - Jonah Kusi-Asare, as we are short of strikers. Loan - Rodrigo Muniz so he can rebuild his confidence away from the pressure of Premier League. Sell -Emile Smith Rowe, as he has not lived up to potential while Josh King has impressed.
Ali: Keep - Muniz, as without Raul Jimenez he will be aiming to cement his place in the starting XI. Jorge Cuenca, an honourable shout as well. Loan - tough, as our squad is so small. Luke Harris at the moment as we have no depth, no-one should be leaving, but maybe one of the kids like Farhaan Ali Wahid after a great season in PL2. Sell - I personally don't think we should sell anyone bar incomings, but Sasa Lukic was pretty shocking anytime he touched the football pitch this season and we should cash in on him while we can.
Rob: Keep - Luke Harris needs to given a chance. Loan - Seth Ridgeon, give him a season in the Championship - he is the future. Sell - Muniz, nice fella but can't hit a barn door.
Joel: Keep - CalvinBassey. Power, pace and energy, and can pop up with a goal here and there. Loan - Kusi-Asare. if we make the loan permanent, be good to see him get some real minutes and see how he progresses. Sell -JoachimAndersen. Too slow, too many mistakes! Becoming a liability, sadly.
George: Keep - Cuenca should be kept. Always looks solid and provides cover in multiple positions. Loan - StevenBenda should be loaned. Continue getting experience ahead of potential number one spot following year. Sell - Smith-Rowe should be sold. Never lived up to the hope he promised, value dropping every game he plays.

What's the situation with McKenna and Fulham?published at 15:43 BST 9 June

Fulham remain in the hunt for Marco Silva's long-term replacement amid suggestions that Kieran McKenna is the frontrunner.
However, it is understood that any deal to appoint the Ipswich Town manager is complicated by a number of significant costs.
The first is a compensation fee, thought to be around £8m, payable to Ipswich, which would be likely to reduce Fulham's transfer budget for next season.
There are also his wage demands, which are among the highest in the Premier League, as well as the added expense of bringing in his backroom staff.
A number of BBC Sport sources believe Fulham have shown interest without making formal contact with the Suffolk club, but there are questions over whether the overall cost will prove prohibitive.
At Ipswich, there is a mixture of optimism that he will stay, but also uncertainty over the possibility that he could effectively leave if the right figures are hit.
It was a similar situation when Bournemouth opted for former Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose over McKenna after Andoni Iraola announced he would leave the south coast at the end of the season.
Sources at Fulham have been approached for further clarity but have so far been cautious about outlining their managerial search.
The situation follows Silva's decision to join Portuguese side Benfica at the end of his contract at Craven Cottage, having turned down a competitive offer to remain in the role.
Michael wrote: It's not all about money, Kieran is a nice bloke and Town will have him for a few more years. His roots are established and it would be a shame to see him go. There's no chance. And he has a good chance of keeping Town in the league.
Dave offered: Why would he go to Fulham? A sideways move at best. I'd understand if it was Spurs or Manchester United. Fulham are a mid-table team. With the ambition of our owners, I can see us staying in the league for a few more years and building on that for future European challenges - just look at Sunderland. He is loved here at the club and it can only get better. At Fulham he'd have to start again and build up any momentum.
