Fulham are looking into the possibility of signing Lyon winger Bertrand Traore.
The former Chelsea player has two years left on his contract at the French club.
Lyon are prepared to sell Traore this summer and he has been watched by a long list of Premier League clubs including Newcastle, Leicester, Everton and Crystal Palace.

Lyon paid Chelsea £9m for Traore three years ago after he had impressed during loan spells at Vitesse Arnhem and Ajax.
Fulham, who were promoted to the Premier League this summer, have already bolstered their midfield by signing two players from Southampton - with Mario Lemina joining on a season-long loan and Harrison Reed signing permanently.
They have also entered the race to sign Ollie Watkins from Brentford and are in talks with the Sky Bet Championship club over the striker.
