According to a report from Takvim, Fulham are now ready to make a move for Galatasaray centre-back, Victor Nelsson, who has been linked with a move to Tottenham.
Reports from Turkey have continued to indicate that Nelsson remains on Spurs’ radar, with Aksam reporting at the start of the month that the Lilywhites are keeping close tabs on the centre-back, who is valued at €30m (£26m).
Last week, FotoSpor also suggested that the North London club plan on sending scouts to watch the Dane in action in the Champions League later this month.
Meanwhile, a couple of days ago, Haber7 explained that the defender has refused to sign a new contract and that the Istanbul club regret their decision to reject offers from Spurs and Sevilla for the player in the summer transfer window.

Fulham are now in the mix for Victor Nelsson
If Takvim’s latest update is to be believed, Spurs could now face competition from the Cottagers for Nelsson’s signature in January.
The report states that Fulham’s interest in the 25-year-old is moving quickly and that the West London club are already making plans to submit a proposal for the player.
The outlet adds that Marco Silva’s side may find a deal for Nelsson relatively straight-forward to complete as Galatasaray do not want to hang on to an unhappy player who is hurting dressing room morale.
Spurs Web Opinion
While Tottenham might have scouted Nelsson, there is nothing to indicate that the club have shown a concrete interest in the centre-back.
All the speculation from the start of the summer has come from Turkish sources, with none of the British outlets or journalists suggesting that the Dane is anywhere near the top of Spurs’ wishlist.
