Fulham are among the Premier League sides chasing after Eredivisie top scorer Vangelis Pavlidis.

The AZ Alkmaar forward has been impressing in the Dutch league so far this term.

Chelsea, Barcelona and AC Milan are among the teams who have been scouting Pavlidis.

AZ are aware that several of the teams monitoring him are ready to bid in January.

Fulham are one of those sides, as they seek forward options to replace wantaway stars.

If Carlos Vinicius or Rodrigo Muniz leave, then Fulham will put in an offer for Pavlidis.

The Greece international told De Telegraaf this weekend: “Are there things going on? I don't talk about that now — I prefer to keep that to myself.

“It is clear that I am physically and technically ready to take the next step. The transfer window in the winter is of course different than in the summer. It is more difficult in several ways. That is why I don't know whether this is the right time.

“Everyone knows that I wanted to take the next step last summer. In the end it was not the right time, because a suitable club did not present itself."
