FULHAM have joined the race for Grady Diangana.
The West Ham starlet, 22, spent last season on loan at West Brom.
The Baggies want to sign him permanently.
But they face competition from their fellow Premier League newbies the Cottagers, who went up via the play-offs.
Ajax and Celtic have also been monitoring the midfielder.
He caught the eye after playing a significant role in the Baggies clinching promotion.
Diangana is reluctant to return to the Hammers unless he is guaranteed first-team football.
The England Under-21 ace is keen for regular playing time at this stage of his career.
And he would see a season spent on the fringes as a year wasted.

Diangana was born in the Democratic Republic of Congo but moved with his family to London when he was four, growing up in Woolwich.
He joined West Ham aged 12 and made his senior debut in September 2018, scoring twice in an 8-0 win over Macclesfield Town.
The ace has played 17 top-flight games for the Hammers since before he featured 30 times in the Championship last term.
