Fulham are considering a move for Arsenal's £50m-rated striker Folarin Balogun as they prepare to sell Aleksandar Mitrovic to Al-Hilal.

Fulham also retain an interest in Benfica defender Morato and have asked about Eric Bailly at Manchester United.

Balogun impressed on loan at Reims last season as he scored 22 goals and he could now depart permanently.

22-year-old centre-back Morato is a product of Benfica's academy and has made 51 senior appearances for the club.

Fulham had a bid of £18million for Morato turned down last month. Morato has told Benfica that he wants to leave.
