PARIS SAINT GERMAIN star Laurent Robert has
confirmed that he has held talks with Fulham over a possible move to Craven
Cottage, but according to reports in France he is likely to sign a new deal
to stay at the Parc des Princes.
The 26-year-old left sided midfielder has been linked with a move away from
PSG after a fall-out with coach Luis Fernandez and he has been subject of
a bid from Newcastle United.
Magpies boss Bobby Robson has been chasing the French international
for some time now, but despite recent talks it appears he will not joining
the North East outfit.
Fulham boss Jean Tigana is determined to bring in a top-class star to Craven
Cottage this summer and Robert is one name high on his wanted list.
Robert revealed on his own official website that nothing was resolved surrounding
his future, but that his agent Pape Diouf was to hold talks next week.
"Nothing is decided and more won't be know until next week," said
Robert. "My agent is away and he will go again next week and that is
all I can say. "There has been reports of Fulham being interested and
it is true that I spoke to Fulham and manager Jean Tigana, but I did not
go to England to look at the club or to Newcastle as reports suggested.
"For the meantime the are talks continuing with my agent.
Robert has resolved his disagreements with Fernadez and he has starred for
the side in their Intertoto campaign this term having won his place back
in the side.
Fernandez is keen to keep the highly-rated ace as he tries to improve on
a disappointing campaign last season and he has been offered a new lucrative
extended contract to stay in Paris.
