Tosin Adarabioyo Solidifies Fulham’s Defence

14th January 2021

Since joining Fulham, Tosin Adarabioyo has made a remarkable impact, playing every minute of every Premier League match. This impressive statistic is a clear testament to the confidence that manager Scott Parker has in his latest addition to the squad.

Before Tosin’s arrival, Fulham faced a challenging start to the season, losing all four of their opening fixtures and conceding an alarming 11 goals. However, just three months later, the Cottagers are enjoying a six-game unbeaten streak, highlighting the defensive stability that Tosin has brought to the team. His excellent positional awareness, combined with numerous clearances and interceptions, has transformed Fulham’s backline. Standing tall in aerial battles, Tosin also possesses the ability to break lines with incisive passes, contributing to both defensive resilience and offensive play.

As Fulham continues to solidify their defensive efforts, there is great anticipation surrounding their potential to evolve into a more formidable attacking threat. Tosin's presence not only strengthens the team's defense but also paves the way for greater progression throughout the season. His journey serves as an inspiring example of how hard work and dedication can lead to significant achievements in professional football, and fans eagerly await the next chapter in Fulham's campaign.

“I think you can definitely see the way he is, he’s a ball-playing centre-half, plays through the lines, nice with the ball and confident with the ball so there’s definitely that element that you can tell he’s been schooled in a certain way. He’s done extremely well, he’s got loads and loads of facets to his game, he can keep growing and become a top Premier League centre-half.”
