But why would relegation-threatened Fulham help us get out of the shit?
Watford and French club Evian have been linked with a move for 30-year-old midfielder Boateng, who has been unable to break into the first team at Craven Cottage this season.
But France Football reports Sunderland are favourites to sign him on a temporary basis as he wants to feature in the English top flight.
Boateng is desperate for a move which will provide regular playing time so he can book his place in Ghana’s World Cup squad this summer so the Black Stars player could be joining the Black Cats.
