Derby County striker Chris Martin due at Fulham for medical?

Fulham have reportedly won the race to sign Derby County striker Chris Martin.

The Cottagers have been competing with Wolverhampton Wanderers for the signature of the Scottish international, who started the season on the bench at the Rams and has failed to score in six games this campaign.

However, that has not put off the West London outfit and according to Sky Sports News, Martin has been given permission to undergo a medical with Slavisa Jokanovic's team.

It has previously been claimed that Derby were looking for a fee in the region of £8m if they were to consider selling a player who has scored 53 goals in 129 games for the club in the second tier.

Fulham have also been linked with the signing of former Arsenal, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace forward Emmanuel Adebayor.
