Fulham move for Brighton attacker Anthony Knockaert

Fulham are moving for Brighton attacker Anthony Knockaert.

The Sun says the Cottagers have made contact with Brighton and while a formal offer has yet to be made, a £15million fee has been discussed.

Knockaert will be tempted to drop down a division by the prospect of a hefty increase in his wages which are believed to be around £40,000 a week.

Fulham see the 27-year-old Frenchman as the ideal player to score and create goals out wide.

It is a position the club are keen to fill following the exits of Ryan Babel, Andre Schurrle and the expected departure of Ryan Sessegnon to Tottenham.
