Fulham are trawling the Irish transfer market for new talent.

Cottagers academy chief Huw Jennings told fulhamfc.com: "I've just come back from two days in Ireland, a country that traditionally produces a fairly steady stream of footballing talent. However, that's not to suggest that we're ignoring the young players on our own doorstep because we're not, we're working extremely hard in what is a very talented pool of local players.

"But we do need to be mindful of the possibilities that lie elsewhere. We'll certainly be concentrating most of our recruitment in and around London, but we will look regionally and internationally."
