Evans Timothy Fosu Fosu-Mensah is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder, centre-back or full-back for English club Fulham, on loan from Manchester United, and the Netherlands national team.


Club career

 

Manchester United

Born in Amsterdam to Ghanaian parents, Fosu-Mensah began his career with Ajax, before moving to England in 2014. 

Fosu-Mensah has played for Manchester United's youth teams in a variety of positions, including centre-back, right-back and central midfield. 


He made his professional debut at left-back on 28 February 2016, in a 3:2 Premier League win at home to Arsenal, coming on as a 55th-minute substitute for Marcos Rojo.

On 19 October 2016, he signed a new long-term contract with Manchester United until 2020, with the option to extend for a further year.


Crystal Palace (loan)
On 10 August 2017, Fosu-Mensah joined Crystal Palace on a season-long loan
, reuniting with his former boss at Ajax, Frank de Boer.

He made his debut for Palace two days later on 12 August 2017 against newly promoted Huddersfield Town, losing 3:0.

Despite the defeat, Fosu-Mensah was praised for his last-minute tackle on Steve Mounié, denying him a hat-trick.
 

Fulham (loan)
On 9 August 2018, Fosu-Mensah joined Fulham on a season-long loan.


International career

Having played at under-15, under-16, under-17 and under-19 levels for the Netherlands, Fosu-Mensah was rewarded for his performances for Manchester United with his first call-up to the senior team for friendlies against the Republic of Ireland, Poland and Austria. 

He is also eligible to play for Ghana as he qualifies through his parents. 

He received another call-up to the senior squad on 28 August 2017, replacing the injured Kenny Tete for the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against France and Bulgaria.

Fosu-Mensah made his first senior appearance for the Netherlands on 31 August 2017, when he was named in the starting line-up against France in a 4:0 defeat.

Personal life
Fosu-Mensah is the brother of fellow footballer Alfons Fosu-Mensah.
