Swansea City boss reportedly Fulham’s top managerial target

Fulham have reportedly put Steve Cooper on the top of their wanted list to replace Scott Parker.

Parker is expected to leave Fulham after two years in charge at Craven Cottage and join Bournemouth.

The Sun are reporting that Fulham would have to pay a compensation fee for Cooper, which is around £3.5million.

The Cottagers believe the Welshmen would be ideal as he plays good football, with an emphasis on developing youngsters.

Cooper has been linked with the vacant Crystal Palace job but the same publication claims the Eagles are no longer interested in the 41-year-old.

Eddie Howe is reportedly also on Fulham’s shortlist.
