FULHAM have joined the race to sign Andriy Yarmolenko on a free transfer, according to reports.
The winger, 32, will leave West Ham when his contract expires at the end of this month.
In 84 appearances across all competitions during his four-year spell with the Hammers he scored 12 goals.
Arguably the most memorable came as he fired the club to the Europa League quarter-finals with a dramatic extra-time finish against Sevilla in March.
However, West Ham officials have not offered him a new contract for his efforts.
Yarmolenko will become a free agent next month, but there are already a number of clubs competing for his signature, including Fulham.
