Fulham reportedly want Fernando Forestieri of Sheffield Wednesday.

Fulham are interested in signing Fernando Forestieri from Sheffield Wednesday in the summer transfer window, with Stoke City and Middlesbrough also tracking the forward, according to The Daily Mail.

Wednesday’s Championship rivals, Stoke and Middlesbrough, are reported to have already made enquiries.

The Cottagers, who will play in the Premier League next season after winning promotion from the Championship, are also reported to be interested in the 28-year-old, who can operate as a striker or as an attacking midfielder.

The Daily Mail has also reported that Wednesday are likely to sell the former Italy Under-21 international in order to decrease their debts.

Good signing?

Forestieri has been on the books of Wednesday since the summer of 2015 when he joined from Watford for a transfer fee reported by Sky Sports to be worth £3 million.

The 28-year-old has proved himself in the Championship, and he would be a good signing for Stoke or Middlesbrough in their quest to win promotion to the Premier League.

The attacker could prove to be a smart signing for Fulham, but only at the right price.
