Fulham are chasing Newcastle United fullback Danny Simpson.
The Evening Chronicle says Simpson is still open to the possibility of staying on Tyneside but has targeted a move to the capital if his future is not resolved with United.
The Cottagers would fit the bill for the player, who could be on the brink of ending his three-year stay with the black-and-whites.
Queens Park Rangers also have a longstanding interest in the player, the boyhood Manchester United fan Simpson also enthusiastic about working for one of his heroes Mark Hughes.
