Former Wanderers loanee Marlon Fossey has been linked with a move to Belgian club Standard Liege.

Fossey impressed for the Whites at wing-back during the second half of last season after joining on loan from Fulham.

The 23-year-old managed a goal and four assists in 15 appearances before his campaign was cut short by a knee injury.

Fossey is now in talks over a permanent move to Standard Liege, according to a report from Sky Sports.

He is into the final year of his contract and has previously turned down the offer of an extension from the London club.

The wing-back has made one appearance for Fulham this season, starting in the 2-0 defeat against Crawley Town in the Carabao Cup just over a week ago.

Standard Liege are managed by former Celtic boss Ronny Deila and are currently 11th in the Belgian top-flight, having picked up seven points from their opening six matches.

Wanderers had been linked with a move for Fossey this summer prior to Conor Bradley’s arrival on loan from Liverpool.

The Northern Ireland international has hit the ground running in League One and was on target in the wins against Salford City and Morecambe.

Ian Evatt revealed that Bradley was actually the club’s top target during the January transfer window prior to Fossey’s arrival.

Wanderers have also brought in Jack Iredale, James Trafford, Eoin Toal and more recently Owen Beck this summer as they aim to compete for a place near the top end of League One.
