Fulham tells suitors to piss off



2 million?? Bitch please..


Surprising news from Craven Cottage:

Via ESPN-Fulham "would not welcome" any bids for reportedly in-demand duo Moussa Dembele and Clint Dempsey.Dembele, 25, and Dempsey, 29, have been linked with summer moves to Manchester United and Liverpool respectively.

Belgium international Dembele last month reiterated his commitment to Fulham, having joined the club from AZ Alkmaar for £5 million in 2010.

Dempsey, however, has expressed his ambition to sign for a so-called bigger side, and last week Liverpool were forced to clarify a report that suggested they were set to acquire the American.

Fulham, though, are understood to have not yet received a bid for either player. A source told ESPN: "Fulham have nothing to say on either player, other than no bids would be welcome for any of our players."

Asked whether United or Liverpool have tabled offers for Dembele and Dempsey respectively, the source added: "There are no current bids, and none would be welcome."

Fulham need to understand that Dempsey WILL leave Craven Cottage when his contract is up at the end of next season. It's not like by keeping Dempsey the Whites will become league contenders. Seems a little silly to let him leave for nothing next summer.  Of course like so much of the transfer market in this game this may very well be Fulhams way of saying they won't take any BS bids for either one of their two stars.  If teams want them they are going to have to pay up.
