Fulham are closing in on the signing of Lazio goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha on a free transfer.
The 27-year-old has been in talks with the West Londoners for a number of weeks over a move to the Premier League.
The Albanian stopper is out of contract at the Serie A side, and wants to test himself in England.
SunSport understands his deal with the Cottagers could be up to four years and worth around £1million a year.
He is also expected to receive a hefty signing-on bonus along with other additions on top of that.
The move has not yet been sealed, but both the club and player are confident the deal will go through.
A number of teams around Europe have been looking at signing Strakosha, including rivals Southampton.
They are looking for a new goalkeeper after Fraser Forster joined Tottenham on a free earlier this week.
However, Saints are now close to snapping-up Gavin Bazunu for £10m from Manchester City.
Strakosha came through the academy at Lazio, where he has been for the last ten-years.
He has played 208 games for the club and won two Coppa Italia titles.
