Al-Hilal are closing in on a deal to sign Aleksandar Mitrovic from Fulham after rekindling their interest in the Serbia striker.

Fulham rejected a £25.5m bid from the Saudi Pro League side for Mitrovic last month and insisted that the 28-year-old is not for sale. But having wrapped up an £86.3m deal for Neymar earlier this week, Al-Hilal are understood to be very optimistic of completing a deal for Mitrovic, who scored 14 Premier League goals last season.
