Besiktas defender Domagoj Vida has reportedly emerged as a January transfer target for Fulham.

Vida helped Croatia reach the World Cup final during the summer, and although the 29-year-old was heavily linked with a switch to the Premier League, the versatile player remained in Turkey.

However, Besiktas are off the pace in the top flight this season, and according to Fotomac, Fulham are considering an approach for Vida at the midway point of the campaign.

Fulham kept their first clean sheet of the season at Newcastle United on Saturday, but Claudio Ranieri remains desperate for defensive additions with the West Londoners four points adrift of safety.

Vida still has just over three-and-a-half years remaining on his contract, but that is unlikely to stop Fulham and other English clubs from registering an interest in the coming weeks.
