Boost for Jokanovic as Fulham look to tie up Johansen deal


Fulham are looking to tie up a deal to sign Norway midfielder Stefan Johansen from Celtic.

Slavisa Jokanovic wants the 25-year-old, who has made 73 league appearances for the Scottish champions, and scored 12 goals, since being signed from Strømsgodset in 2014.

Whites head coach Jokanovic has been at odds with the Fulham hierarchy over the club’s transfer policy and has made clear his frustration at not having control over signings.

But he is an admirer of Johansen and the club completing a deal to sign him would be a significant boost for Jokanovic, whose team are unbeaten this season.
