Reading and West Brom have shown an interest in Fulham utility man Chris Baird.
The 30-year-old has been a regular in the engine room this season after the departures of Mousa Dembele, Danny Murphy and Dickson Etuhu last summer.
However, the Northern Ireland international is entering the final six months of his contract at Craven Cottage and is yet to reach the number of games to trigger an extension.
Baird is understood to be happy at Fulham, where he has made more than 150 appearances since his switch from Southampton in 2007, but could be tempted by the chance to tie up his long-term future elsewhere.
