Fulham looking to sign Norwich City striker Nelson Oliveira?

Fulham are reportedly contemplating whether to make a bid for Norwich City striker Nelson Oliveira during the January transfer window.

Fulham have reportedly identified Norwich City forward Nelson Oliveira as a potential transfer target.

The Cottagers have failed to replicate their form of last season - where they reached the Championship playoffs - but they still sit in 10th place in the second-tier standings, just six points off the top six.

However, the club's top goalscorer is left-back Ryan Sessegnon, who has netted seven times, and head coach Slavisa Jokanovic would prefer to add more firepower to his squad despite having little say over transfers.

According to The Sun, the West Londoners could launch an approach for Oliveira, who has been tipped to leave Carrow Road during the January transfer window.

The Portuguese striker is highly regarded, but the 26-year-old has contributed just seven goals in 20 outings in the league this season and could be sold for a fee in the region of £8m.

Swansea City and Wolverhampton Wanderers have also been linked with a bid for the player.
