Niang heading to Fulham?

Mamadou Niang could be set for a move to England as Premiership side Fulham are preparing the finishing touches to a £4 million offer for the Marseille striker.

The Senegalese international has been in superb form for Marseille since joining from Strasbourg, and has often partnered Djibril Cisse up front and has formed a formidable partnership.

However, Fulham are known to be looking for a midfielder and Arsene Wenger has reportedly recommended Niang to Roy Hodgson as a potential signing for the Cottagers.

The £4 million move could be completed before the end of the January transfer window, but if not could see the Senegalese international move to England in June.
