Aboubakar Kamara's Fulham career all but over after he is ordered to train with their under-23 team
Aboubakar Kamara’s Fulham career appears to be over after the controversial striker was ordered to train with the club’s under-23s.
Fulham manager Claudio Ranieri has left Kamara out of his last two squads, against Burnley and for Sunday’s defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, and he is no longer part of the first-team set-up.
Kamara has been involved in two bust-ups with Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, firstly after taking the ball off the Serb to take, and miss, a penalty against Huddersfield Town.
It then emerged last week that Kamara had exchanged words with Mitrovic during a club yoga session after upsetting his team-mate by talking.
Kamara has not played for Fulham since scoring as a substitute against Arsenal on Jan 1, which now appears to have been his final act for the west London club.
Fulham have been looking for buyers for Kamara, who has been linked with a loan move to Turkish club Yeni Malatyaspor, and have signed Ryan Babel from Besiktas as his replacement.
A source told Telegraph Sport: “Kamara’s Fulham career is over. He’s training with the under-23s and there doesn’t look to be any way back now.”
Speaking ahead of the Tottenham defeat, Ranieri said: “Kamara is not in the squad. I prefer to think about it and then I will do the best for the team.”
