Foxes hunt Fulham striker Kamara

Diomansy Kamara joined Fulham from West Bromwich Albion in July 2007

Leicester City hope to tie up a loan deal for Fulham forward Diomansy Kamara later this week.

Kamara, 30, has fallen out of favour at Craven Cottage this season and has played only 11 games for the Londoners.

Foxes boss Sven-Goran Eriksson has said that he is trying to sign a big name – and the Senegal striker watched Saturday’s defeat by Portsmouth.

Eriksson remains tight-lipped but told BBC Radio Leicester: “It might happen, it might not – I don’t really know.”
