Fulham manager Roy Hodgson is reportedly lining up a double swoop for Rangers winger DaMarcus Beasley and Queens Park Rangers starlet Raheem Sterling in the January transfer window.

The Daily Mirror claim Hodgson is keen to lure the American speedster to Craven Cottage as cover for Damien Duff, while Sterling is widely considered to be one of the brightest prospects in the English game.

Beasley is desperate to leave Ibrox in the transfer window as he seeks regular first-team football ahead of next summer's World Cup finals in South Africa.

The 27-year-old winger joined Rangers in 2007 from PSV Eindhoven for £700,000, having previously been on loan at Manchester City, but has failed to make a desired impact in Glasgow.

Sterling has been turning the heads of several Premier League scouts and now the Cottagers are supposedly ready to offer £1million for the 14-year-old striker.

However, QPR are believed to have started contacting other clubs regarding Fulham's bid in the hope of starting a bidding war between Hodgson's side, Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City.
