Derek Boateng undergoes Fulham medical?

Derek Boateng has reportedly moved a step closer to becoming a Fulham player by undergoing a medical with the Premier League club.

The Whites were believed to be keen to sign the Ghana international during the summer, only for the move to fall through towards the end of the transfer window.

However, talks resumed over the Christmas period and Fulham are thought to have agreed a fee with Boateng's Ukrainian employers Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk, according to Goal.com.

The 29-year-old has played for a number of clubs during his career, including Panathinaikos, Beitar Jerusalem, Koln and Getafe.

He has also made 40 appearances for his country.
