Ipswich Town are eyeing Fulham midfielder Sasa Lukic as a key transfer target. The 29-year-old Serbian international has Premier League experience, having played almost 100 top-flight games since joining Fulham in 2023.
What's the background?
Lukic came through the ranks at Partizan Belgrade before moving to Serie A club Torino in 2016. He spent seven years in Italy, then joined Fulham, where he was an important player under Marco Silva.
Why is he a target?
Ipswich Town are focusing their recruitment on midfield next, with Premier League experience an important criteria for the role in the centre of the park. Lukic ticks that box, having made 26 Premier League appearances last season, 20 of which came as starts.
What's the current situation?
Ipswich Town had already been in contact with Fulham this summer, having signed their Moroccan defender, Issa Diop, last week. Fulham are preparing for a new era under boss Alvaro Arbeloa, who was appointed earlier this month. As of the end of the 2025 season, Ipswich Town finished 2nd in the Championship with 84 points from 46 games, and are now looking to strengthen their squad for the new season. They have scored 80 goals and conceded 47, with a goal difference of +33, and are 11 points behind leaders Coventry in the title race.
