Fulham eyeing Standard Liege goalkeeper

Fulham are lining up a move for Standard Liege goalkeeper Sinan Bolat to replace Mark Schwarzer.

Veteran Schwarzer's contract at Craven Cottage expires at the end of the season and Martin Jol is scouring the market for a successor.

Bolat, 24, has come to Jol's attention and has been linked with numerous clubs following his impressive performances for Liege and the Turkey national team.

Bolat also holds the distinction of being the only goalkeeper to have scored a goal in open-play in the Champions League, having netted a 95th minute header for Liege against AZ Alkmaar in 2009.

Manchester United scouted him around that time but pursued David De Gea instead - and now Fulham are ready to make a move for the Liege man, whose contract expires in 2013.
