Josh Onomah played for Fulham from 2019 until 2023 as a central midfielder. He was signed on deadline day from Tottenham Hotspur ahead of the 2019-20 season as part of the deal that saw Ryan Sessegnon head the other way. He represented England up to U21 level.

Career[]

Before Fulham[]

Fulham (2019-2023)[]

Josh signed for Fulham on 8 August 2019, as part of the deal which saw Ryan Sessegnon sign for Tottenham Hotspur. After a short stint with the U23 squad where he scored on debut, he made his first team debut as he started in a 1-0 defeat at home to Southampton in the EFL Cup on 27 August 2019.

He had a tough start to his Fulham career and had his doubters, but his performances improved and the turning point may have been his first goal for first team during a 2-1 win over Leeds United at Craven Cottage, in which he scored the deciding goal.

He scored a 95th minute winner during a 1-0 win against Birmingham City for his second goal for the club. This was trumped by a wonderful solo goal that he scored against Cardiff City during a 2-0 win which helped take them to the Championship Play-off Final where they won promotion to the Premier League in August 2020.

After featuring in a handful of the opening matches of the 2020-21 season, unfortunately Josh picked up an injury which kept him out for three months and was not registered for the Premier League until January 2021. Josh then made a smattering of appearance in the first team for the latter half of the season but could not prevent Fulham from another relegation.

He began 2021-22 as a starter under Marco Silva in the heart of midfield alongside the returning Jean Michaël Seri, but quickly lost out to Harrison Reed and found it harder to find game time as Nathaniel Chalobah joined the club and captain Tom Cairney returned from injury.

He was close to joining West Bromwich Albion on loan for the duration of 2022-23, but a deadline day move failed to be completed late in the day. He then stayed with Fulham, but failed to break into the first team and after only two substitute appearances, his contract was mutually terminated on 31 January 2023.

After Fulham[]

Hours after his contract was ended at Fulham, Josh signed for Championship side Preston North End.
