This afternoon, Fulham take on Aston Villa in the Sky Bet Championship play-off final.  

A place in the Premier League awaits to winner at Wembley, with Slavisa Jokanovic’s side hoping to finally seal their place back in the top tier of English football.

Not much focus will be going beyond this afternoon’s clash with Villa, particularly with so much at stake for the Cottagers.

Premier League football will allow some of Fulham’s stars the chance to play against the elite, and will also offer Jokanovic an opportunity to show what a promising young manager he is.

Of course, should promotion be achieved later today, planning for the Premier League is almost certainly going to begin in the coming weeks.

There will be members of Fulham’s squad sacrificed if promotion is achieved, with Jokanovic sure to be busy over the summer.

With that in mind, here is a look at THREE players who could be moved on if Fulham secure Premier League football…

Fonte hasn’t been prolific enough in the Championship, with Fulham reliant on Aleksandar Mitrovic’s goals to guide them to the brink of promotion.

The striker has some classy attributes, but Fulham would need to significantly bolster their strikeforce in the top-flight.

Fonte’s departure could pave the way for arrivals.

Christie was brought in as back-up to Ryan Fredericks, with his opportunities at Craven Cottage limited so far.

Where Fredericks is playing his football next season is a mystery, but if the right-back commits to Fulham, Christie’s chance will seem a million miles away.

He could be on his way out if Fredericks stays.

Norwood has found himself competing for a place in midfield, which is arguably Fulham’s strongest area.

If Fulham are preparing for Premier League football, Norwood’s chance of a permanent deal will seem unlikely.

Brighton didn’t deem him good enough for the top-flight, and it will be interesting to see whether Fulham think the same of their loanee.
