Troy Parrott eyed up for Premier League return in five-way transfer battle

Premier League side Fulham are among the clubs interested in a move for striker Troy Parrott this summer, talkSPORT understands.

The Republic of Ireland striker has attracted attention in the Netherlands with 51 goals in 95 appearances since joining AZ Alkmaar two years ago.

Parrott previously spent seven years at Tottenham Hotspur, graduating from the club’s academy, but only made four senior appearances and never netted.

The 24-year-old spent most of his Spurs career out on loan across five separate spells between 2020 and 2024.

Tottenham have a 20 per cent sell-on clause with Parrott thought to be available for around £25million.

Now, following his Eredivisie exploits, talkSPORT understands there is a possible five-way transfer battle brewing for the striker’s signature.

Along with Fulham, Dutch clubs Ajax and PSV Eindhoven have expressed interest, as well as LaLiga’s Real Betis and Serie A’s Como.

Parrott has also emerged as a key player for his country in recent years, playing a starring role as the Boys in Green narrowly missed out on qualification for the 2026 World Cup.

A move to Fulham would see him add to his two Premier League appearances, both of which came in the 2019/20 season.

The Cottagers having been eyeing a new striker option following the departure of Raul Jimenez, who has returned to Wolves.

Jonah Kusi-Asare has permanently joined from Bayern Munich in a reported €6million (£5.1m) move after his loan spell last season.
