Fulham are eyeing Preston North End dynamo Ben Whiteman.
The former Manchester United trainee, 26, has caught the eye since joining Preston from Doncaster in January 2021.
The Sun says the Cottagers have been linked with a move for Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure.
However, at about 5m, Whiteman would be a cheaper alternative.
Whiteman is in the final 18 months of his contract at Preston.
And Fulham know that he would understandably jump at the chance of a move to the Premier League.
