Fulham pushing to sign out of favour Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek on loan with top flight strugglers hoping to improve squad on deadline day

Fulham are pushing to sign Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek on loan.

Scott Parker is hoping to add at least two centre-backs and a midfielder to his squad who have started the season with four straight defeats.

Loftus-Cheek is high on the list of midfielders with Frank Lampard admitting he may be allowed to leave to get regular football.

Rostov’s Mathias Normann is another name under consideration.

The list of centre-backs is lengthy – Barcelona’s Jean-Clair Todibo, Lyon’s Joachim Andersen, PSV’s Timo Baumgartl, Sampdoria’s Omar Colley are among the names in the mix.
