Fulham have not given up hope of signing Matt Targett from Southampton, Sky Sports News understands.
The Whites have had an initial £5m offer rejected by the Saints and are yet to follow up with a second approach.
Southampton are understood to want to keep Targett following his impressive stint on loan with Fulham last season.
The left-back was instrumental as they were promoted to the Premier League via the play-offs last season.
Sky Sports News reported earlier this summer that Targett was one of several loan players the Whites want to sign on permanent deals this summer.
