Fulham in loan talks for Chiapas striker Jhon Cordoba

Fulham are in talks for Colombia striker Jhon Cordoba.

The Daily Mail says Cottagers manager Martin Jol has made his move to beat off competition from Espanyol for the 20-year-old who plays for Mexican side Chiapas.

The powerful forward will not meet initial requirements for a work permit as he is a Columbia U20 international but Fulham hope to win an appeal on the grounds that he is a special talent.
