Fulham have joined the race to sign Fredrik Stoor, according to the Sweden defender's agent.

The 24-year-old Rosenborg full-back was part of Sweden's Euro 2008 squad and has previously been linked with a move to England with Blackburn Rovers and Wigan Athletic.

"Fulham are really interested," agent Per Jonsson told the Daily Mail.

"In a perfect world it will be done in a few weeks."

Meanwhile, Cottagers boss Roy Hodgson has revealed he is closing in on several summer transfer targets.

Hodgson has added just midfielders Zoltan Gera and Andranik Teimourian, plus veteran goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer, to his ranks since the end of the last campaign.

"We have other transfer targets on the market," he revealed.

"It has been quiet, but that doesn't mean that clubs out there don't have targets and are not working behind the scenes."
