Fulham close in on £150,000 deal for Oldham teenage whizkid Damon Park, 16, who is tipped for big things

PREMIER LEAGUE new boys Fulham are signing Oldham’s teenage centre half Damon Park in a bargain deal.

Fulham have stepped in to agree a few with Latics for centre half Park, 16, who is tipped for big things at the club who dropped out of the EFL.

Park has come through the youth ranks at Oldham and was spotted by the Londoners who are keen to pick up domestic talent for the future.

Fulham will only pay around £150,000 up front for Park with extras based on achievements and appearances.

Oldham Athletic recently fell out of the EFL.

The Latics came 23rd in League Two amid off field turmoil.

Oldham fans protested a number of times against the club's ownership this season.

Fulham, meanwhile, were promoted to the Premier League at a canter.

The West Londoners won the Championship title with games to spare.

Since sealing promotion, they have been linked with a number of talented players.
