Fulham are reportedly set to raid Dutch side Heerenveen for wingers Luciano Narsingh and Oussama Assaidi this summer.

Cottagers boss Martin Jol has been keeping tabs on both players, who have been plying their trade in his homeland this past season, and invited them to London on Monday, along with their agent Mino Raiola, to view the club's training facilities and discuss a deal.
Jol is now looking to agree personal terms with 21-year-old Narsingh, who has been named in the Netherlands' preliminary squad for Euro 2012, and 23-year-old Morocco international, Assaidi, with a view to wrapping up a double swoop.
Heerenveen have confirmed that they gave both players permission to travel to England for talks with Fulham, despite them both having a year remaining on their respective current deals.
"We have given Mino Raiola and the players the space to talk," Heerenveen technical director Johan Hansma told De Telegraaf.
"Narsingh and Assaidi had to have a good feeling with a club. It doesn't make any sense if we reach an agreement with a club and the players won't want to go there. To succeed in a transfer there are three sides needed."
Meanwhile, FC Twente's chairman Joop Munsterman has scotched reports that he has given Fulham permission to speak to star man Nacer Chadli.
Munsterman told Voetbal International: "I have become a little bit nervous of Evrard. He always drops a couple of names of clubs, but they never contact us. We aren't talking with any club right now."
