Fulham are discussing a potential deal to sign Stefano Okaka from Watford, Sky Sports News understands.

The Whites are hoping to bolster their attacking options before Wednesday's transfer deadline and Italian Okaka has been struggling for first-team games at Vicarage Road.

The 28-year-old, who signed for the Hornets from Anderlecht in 2016, previously spent time on loan at Fulham in 2010, scoring twice in 11 Premier League appearances.

Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic has been at odds with his club's hierarchy over transfers this month, wanting them to sign a new centre-back, left-back and striker.
