Allardyce calls for Franck talk

Fulham defender Franck Queudrue is a target for Newcastle.

Sam Allardyce seems set to miss out on Reading's Nicky Shorey so the Newcastle boss now wants Queudrue.

Pointing to the door? Fulham caretaker-manager Lawrie Sanchez has a quick word with Franck Queudrue

The Frenchman is keen to leave Fulham but will cost around £1.5million.

The defender's agent Dominique Six is quoted on setanta.com as saying: "He is a professional and is under contract with Fulham. But if an opportunity occurs I will definitely study it. Newcastle and Everton regard Franck as a possible signing."

Meanwhile Diomansy Kamara is poised to join Fulham from West Brom when a deal for Heidar Helguson to go in the other direction is agreed.

It is understood the formalities of Kamara's move have been completed, with new boss Lawrie Sanchez set to make his second signing of the summer following Aaron Hughes' arrival from Aston Villa.
