Fulham and West Ham United have agreed a deal that will see Ian Pearce move to The Cottagers and Andy Melville move in the opposite direction.
Pearce is currently undertaking a medical at Fulham before completing the move, and could be available for Monday's clash against Newcastle.
The west London club have already tied up a deal for Maurice Voltz, as Chris Coleman looks to give his defence a major overhaul.
Pearce has plenty of Premiership experience, both with West Ham and Blackburn Rovers, and the former England Under-21 international will be delighted to return to the top flight.
Melville has played over 200 games for Fulham since arriving at the club from Bradford on a free transfer.
The terms of the deal are yet to be announced.
