The former Tottenham right-back signed for AC Milan in a permanent deal in the summer.
However, Milan are bringing in Kyle Walker, which could limit Royal’s game time.
The Times state that Fulham are monitoring the situation and are ready to pounce.
If Milan want to loan out or sell Royal, they will be happy to put in an offer for the flier.
Royal is a little suspect defensively, but does show an inclination to get forward.
