Palermo goalkeeper Rubinho is aware of Fulham's interest.
Giornale di Sicilia says Fulham have already held at least two rounds of talks with Rubinho's agent, Joao Santos, about the Brazilian's availability.
Rubinho, 26, was considered a World Cup chance for Brazil before his summer move from Genoa. But at Palermo, the keeper has failed to win over coach Walter Zenga and is seriously considering quitting Sicily for pastures new.
