Fulham are facing a battle with Newcastle United and Leeds United as they chase French defender Harold Voyer, according to reports from France.

The newly-promoted Toon Army are seen as the favourites to land the centre-back, who is available on a free transfer this summer following his release by former club PSG.

It’s thought that the 20-year-old is desperately seeking first-team opportunities, something which may be hard to come by if he does secure a move to the Premier League side.

Slavisa Jokanovic is keen to bolster his defensive line this summer, and has already added the signing of Marcelo Djalo to his ranks.

Voyer is also said to be attracting interested from a number of European sides.
