JASON SCOTLAND FOR FULHAM

Roy Hodgson ready to move for £2.5m Swansea striker

JASON SCOTLAND - target

09/05/2009

FULHAM boss Roy Hodgson is set to make a move for Swansea hitman Jason Scotland.

The former St Johnstone striker has been in top form for Swansea this season netting 24 goals - including two against Fulham in the FA Cup - and Hodgson has been keeping tabs on the Trinidad & Tobago front man since the sides met in February.

Swansea just missed out on a place in the Championship play-offs and could be tempted to cash in if the Cottagers offer £2.5million.

Hodgson spent £15m on strikers Andy Johnson and Bobby Zamora and despite guiding Fulham to a top-half finish in the Premiership the duo have scored just 14 goals between them this season.

The Londoners could face competition from Burnley boss Owen Coyle for the Trinidad ace.
