Gera has become disgruntled at Craven Cottage with manager Mark Hughes struggling to find room for him in the squad.

The Hungarian's contract runs out in the summer and Italian side Sampadoria have already come knocking for the talented winger.

While Gera won't provide Holloway with an Adam type box-to-box midfielder, the 31-year-old would sure up Blackpool's right flank and add a wealth of top-flight experience.

Attack has been Holloway's philosophy this season and the Seasider's are reported to be considering changing their line-up to play Frenchman Ludovic Sylvestre in Adam's position with Gera taking over the right from Elliot Grandin.

Fulham fans have pleaded for Gera to stay. However, plans to bring in Chelsea's Gael Kakuta on-loan for the rest of the season means the Hungarian's competition for game time will become even more intense.

Adam's transfer, which could skyrocket to £14million would leave Blackpool in a good position to sign Gera, who is valued at around £4million.

Gera's agent Vladan Filipovic confirmed a move was being pondered, telling Nemzeti Sport: 'I talk with Zolly every day, who is frustrated, because he plays less.

'I hope his future will be sorted in a few days, and he changes club.

'I negotiated about him with Fulham's directors, because there are clubs which would pay for him.'

4 million for Gera

Gera, Greening and the Saffer one way, Adam the other. Job's a good un!

Blackpool have a 12k a week wage cap, just guessing but i reckon Gera must be on roughly double that. If true though £4 million would be a great return on an older player out of contract in june, i'd have thought half a million top whack considering what we payed for Sidwell.
