Claudio Ranieri could seal a reunion with his Leicester City Premier League title-winner Danny Simpson at Fulham in the January transfer window.
Since Claudio Ranieri took over as the manager of Fulham, a whole host of his 2016 Leicester City heroes have been linked with a move to Craven Cottage from Shinji Okazaki to Danny Drinkwater, Robert Huth to Christian Fuchs.
And, according to the Mail, Danny Simpson could be set for a reunion with the affable Italian before the end of the month.
The 32-year-old right-back was a regular starter as the Foxes stunned the footballing world by lifting the Premier League trophy three years ago but has slipped down the pecking order under Ranieri’s successor Claude Puel.
Simpson has started just two games in the top flight this season after the arrival of Ricardo Pereira from FC Porto.
And the Mail reports that a move to Fulham is on the cards with the former Manchester United youngster understood to be keen on a switch to West London.
A right-back is a top priority for Fulham during the January window with Timothy Fosu-Mensah returning to Manchester United midway through a disappointing loan spell.
The Cottagers were reportedly in talks with Bordeaux’s Senegal international Youssouf Sabaly, according to Sky Sports, while Victor Moses has also been linked by the Sun (23 December, page 61).
