Fulham are chasing Aston Villa midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker.

The Mirror says Fulham boss Roy Hodgson is considering a £3m move for the Villa midfielder in the January transfer window.

Reo-Coker is desperate to quit Villa Park after being frozen out, following his training ground bust-up with boss Martin O’Neill.

Villa are believed to be ready to lower their asking price for the 25-year-old, after demanding around £7m for him from Spurs in the summer.
