Southampton full back Matt Targett is set to join Fulham on loan until the end of the season, according to the Sun .

The 22-year-old, who was the Saints’ Young Player of the Season in the 2014/15 season, has fallen out of favour at St Mary’s and could be on his way to the Cottage as the club look for a new left back.

Slavisa Jokanovic, who launched a furious tirade regarding a disagreement on transfers and the strength of the side last week, wants to add a new full back to the side in order to allow him to push Ryan Sessegnon further forward - something he’s felt unable to do with Rafa Soares not quite fitting the bill.

And now, according to the report, Targett looks set to head to the Cottage on a loan deal until the end of the season, which would make him the seventh loanee the club have on their books.
