Slovenian starlet Etien Velikonja admits he is keen to move abroad, after fresh links with a switch to England. Middlesbrough were said to be interested last term, while Celta Vigo, Bochum and Auxerre have also kept close tabs on the Gorica front-man. Now Fulham and Hull City are reportedly ready to dispatch scouts to check on the 20-year-old, who has been included in Slovenia's squad to face San Marino later this month. The player himself is looking to seal a move after finishing as top-scorer in Slovenia last year. "Every day I do my best and work hard in training, but it's true and I can't hide my wish - I want to move abroad," the Gorica striker told Nogomania. "But untill this happens, I will try to score as many goals as I can for Gorica. "Everything is in the hands of my manager and also my parents. I think that is the right way so I can only think about football." Gorica are demanding around £1million for the highly-rated youngster.
