Fulham advance in their pursuit of Leicester full-back Timothy Castagne as boss Marco Silva looks to add to his squad before Friday's deadline

Fulham are closing on a deal for Leicester full-back Timothy Castagne.

The 27-year-old can play across the back line and has experience playing at both right back and left back, as well as as a wing back on both sides.

The Cottagers see the Belgian defender as an ideal fit.

Mail Sport reported last week that Marco Silva's side were also lining up a move for AZ Alkmaar defender Yukinari Sugawara.

At that point, it was understood the interest in Sugawara was more advanced than in Castagne, but it is unclear whether they will proceed with a move for both.
