Fulham have agreed a £3.8m deal to sign midfielder Neeskens Kebano from Genk, according to Sky sources.
It is understood the 24-year-old Congo international, who played for France at youth level, is due to fly to London to complete a medical and finalise personal terms.
The Whites are keen to land another central midfielder and Kebano is an industrious all-rounder with an eye for goal.
He scored 14 times in the Belgian top flight after a move from Paris Saint-Germain, where he was a trainee, to Charleroi in 2013.
Kebano has also scored four goals for 26 league appearances for Genk since joining last summer.
Fulham manager Slavisa Jokanovic is also trying to land former Sunderland striker Asamoah Gyan on loan from Chinese Super League side Shanghai SIPG.
Sky Sports News HQ revealed last week that the Whites boss had become frustrated with disputes with the Fulham hierarchy over transfer targets, after missing out on a number of his own suggestions.
It is understood Gyan is a personal target of his and the player, who joined Shanghai from UAE side Al Ain, would be interested in playing under the Serbian.
