After trying to leave Bournemouth since last summer, the 29-year-old striker could finally be on the move on the deadline day of the winter transfer window.
Everton have enquired about the possibility of signing on deadline day today, but it seems Fulham are the ones who could end up being his likely destination.
Scott Parker has been keen to bring in a striker and it seems Fulham are prepared to bankroll a move for King on deadline day.
The talks are still ongoing between the two clubs and there are already suggestions that personal terms are being discussed between Fulham and his representatives.
If a deal goes through, the Norwegian will sign a three-and-a-half-year contract with the west London club.
But the proposed contract will contain a release clause in the event of Fulham being relegated from the Premier League.
King does not want to get stuck at another club in the Championship if the Cottagers fail to survive in the top tier.
Fulham are racing against time to make sure that they manage to get a deal over the line for the Bournemouth striker.
The Cottagers are also in talks to sign one more striker on loan in Bordeaux’s Josh Maja.
