Newcastle United transfer target Tosin Adarabioyo sents out a goodbye message to Fulham after chelsea hijack his signature

Tosin Adarabioyo, who was wanted by Newcastle United as a transfer target, has officially left Fulham prior to the end of his deal.

After Newcastle offered the 26-year-old back a contract to join, a deal looked likely until the player chose to join Fulham’s West London rivals Chelsea instead. After getting physical clearance from the club, Adarabioyo is likely to be named a Chelsea player.

Newcastle United F.C transfer target Tosin Adarabioyo sent Fulham a goodbye message before moving to Chelsea.

In response to Fulham’s published retained lists this week, Adarabioyo posted several photos of himself playing for the club on Instagram with the message, “As a new chapter awaits, I’d just like to thank everyone at Fulham Football Club for the last four years.”

“Here are some great memories I’ll always cherish: the manager, the staff, my teammates, and the fans.” Happy future to you.

Although Newcastle won’t be able to get Adarabioyo, they are about to make an announcement about the free move of Lloyd Kelly, a Premier League defender who was released by AFC Bournemouth. Kelly has worked with Newcastle’s Eddie Howe before. Howe bought the 25-year-old from Bristol City for £13 million in 2019 and put him on the Cherries’ current roster.
