Fulham are close to reaching a deal with Southampton for the services of Mohammed Salisu.
According to SkySports, the London-based club are keen on landing the centre-back for a deal of more than £15 million.
Southampton have already rejected two offers from French side, AS Monaco, for the Ghana defender in the ongoing summer transfer.
Salisu has been tracked by numerous European clubs since the end of the 2022-23 football season when the Saints suffered relegation to the Championship.
The 24-year-old signed for Southampton in August 2020 from Spanish club Real Valladolid in a deal that costs the Saints €12 million.
Salisu however has a year left on his contract.
After being hit by injuries in his first season, the highly-rated player has become a mainstay in the Southampton team in the past two seasons with some eye-catching performances.
Salisu has made 80 appearances in total across all competitions since he joined Southampton, scoring once and assisting once in the process.
He was part of the Black Stars squad that featured at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
