The Reading manager Steve Clarke is set to take over at Championship rivals Fulham, according to reports.
The former West Bromwich Albion head coach is believed to be keen to replace Kit Symons, who left Craven Cottage earlier this month, but the move is subject to personal terms being agreed.
Clarke took over at Reading 11 months ago and secured Championship status while also leading them to a first FA Cup semi-final for 88 years.
Reading are eighth in the table, four places above Fulham, and only four points below the play-off places.
