Manchester City’s promising forward Oscar Bobb has officially completed a move to Fulham, ending his stay at the Etihad in search of regular Premier League football.
The Move to West London
Fulham have pulled off a significant coup by landing Oscar Bobb from the reigning champions. The 22-year-old Norwegian international reportedly pushed for the move to Craven Cottage to guarantee the minutes he needs to lead Norway’s attack in this summer’s 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Despite his immense potential, Bobb found himself down the pecking order at Manchester City. With Pep Guardiola’s side adding new attacking reinforcements this season, Bobb was limited to just 15 appearances, only nine of which were starts.
A Career Interrupted by Injury
Bobb’s journey at City was a story of “what could have been.” After a breakout 2023/24 campaign where he made 26 appearances, his progress was cruelly halted by a serious leg fracture.
Although he fought back to fitness, the Norwegian struggled to regain his clinical edge at the Etihad this term, failing to find the net in his limited cameos. Fulham boss Marco Silva is confident that a change of scenery and a consistent starting role will help Bobb rediscover the form that once made him one of Europe’s most talked-about youngsters.
