Fulham have agreed to sign midfielders Manuel Angel and Hugo Larsson from Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt respectively.

Angel, a graduate of Madrid’s academy, is set to join for an undisclosed fee after making his first-team debut earlier this year.

The Spanish youth international, 22, will reunite with former boss Alvaro Arbeloa and become the third player to make the switch to Craven Cottage from the Spanish capital, following Gonzalo Garcia and Cesar Palacios.

Frankfurt’s Larsson, capped 12 times by Sweden, is expected to cost €25m (£21.4m).

The 22-year-old has spent three years at the Bundesliga club, making 87 appearances in the German top flight.

Fulham have also moved into advanced talks to sign Austrian centre-back David Affengruber from Elche.

Affengruber, 25, travelled to London on Tuesday afternoon and club officials are confident of completing a deal.

If completed, Tuesday’s deals would take Fulham‘s summer arrivals to seven, with Shea Charles and Jonah Kusi-Asare also moving to Craven Cottage.
