British media reports say that Mark Hughes has agreed to manage Premier League club Fulham.
The Guardian and Daily Mail newspapers reported Wednesday night on their websites that the 46-year-old former Manchester City manager had agreed terms with the London club.
Fulham lost last season's Europa League final to Atletico Madrid.
After Roy Hodgson left to manage Liverpool, Martin Jol was pursued but Fulham's approaches were rebuffed by Ajax.
Hughes, a former striker for Manchester United and Chelsea, has been out of work since being fired by Man City in December.
Hughes' managerial career began in 1999 with Wales. He moved into club management in 2004 with Blackburn before leaving four years later to join City.
