Fulham are set to land FC Copenhagen defender Brede Hangeland.
During his time at Viking he was coached by new Fulham boss Roy Hodgson and a reunion now appears to be on the cards.
Reports in Norway claim that the Premier League strugglers are willing to pay £3.5million for the centre-half, who has previously attracted interest from the likes of Newcastle United and Aston Villa.
The 26-year-old is thought to be undergoing a medical in London ahead of completing a move to the Cottagers.
Hodgson is starting to step up his plans to strengthen Fulham's squad after also agreeing a fee to sign striker Marlon King from Watford.
