Contract negotiations between Fulham and Harry Wilson have been temporarily paused, opening the door for several Premier League clubs to explore a potential move for the Welsh international. According to Caught Offside, Wilson’s future has become one of the more intriguing subplots of this transfer cycle, with uncertainty at Craven Cottage creating genuine market movement.
As reported, “Wilson is attracting serious interest from across the league, with Everton considered the most serious suitor at this stage.” That alone underlines how far his stock has risen, especially after a productive campaign that has re established his reputation as a consistent top flight performer.

“This hesitation has alerted rival clubs to Wilson’s potential availability. Fulham remain keen to tie him down, but the situation is now delicate.” The longer this drags on, the more leverage shifts away from Fulham and towards both the player and potential buyers.
