Fulham are in negotiations with Bayern Munich striker Joshua Zirkzee, with AFC Bournemouth and Southampton also ‘interested’.

That’s according to SportBILD journalist Christian Falk, who says there is also a chance VfB Stuttgart could enter the bidding.

Zirkzee returned to Bayern Munich this summer after a successful loan spell at Anderlecht last season which helped to reignite his career, which had been somewhat flailing.

He’s now in the final year of his deal and expected to leave on a permanent basis this year, although where to remains to be seen.

A move to the Premier League has been mooted and all three of Bournemouth, Fulham and Southampton have been named as potential destinations.

It seems Fulham have now gone one step further, with Falk reporting they are negotiating with the player’s management about a switch to Craven Cottage. Bournemouth and Southampton meanwhile, are just interested parties.

They could also be joined by Stuttgart, but only if they were to sell Sasa Kalajdzic, who has been linked with a move to Manchester United.

There’s no mention of a bid being placed with Bayern as yet, but that could always change, particularly if Fulham’s talks with Zirkzee’s management go well.
