Fulham: Fulham in for Djorkaeff

Former Bolton star Youri Djorkaeff is set to sign for Fulham, skysports.com understands.

The 36-year-old has been without a club since leaving Bolton in the summer, after failing to agree a new deal with The Trotters.

Djorkaeff has now arrived in West London and is set to add to the French contingent at Craven Cottage.

Manager Chris Coleman has been looking at ways to bolster his squad, even though the transfer window was closed and Djorkaeff is the man he has turned to.

World Cup winner Youri Djorkaeff is closer to a move to Craven Cottage, according to Fulham coach Dave Beasant.

Djorkaeff was released by Bolton in the summer after enjoying an extension to his career at the Reebok Stadium.

But Fulham boss Chris Coleman clearly believes the Frenchman would be an asset to Fulham and expects him to sign soon, though it is unlikely a move would be completed before the Cottagers' clash with Southampton this weekend.

Fulham's bid to sign 36-year-old French international Youri Djorkaeff have stalled because the club and player have failed to agree contract details.

Djorkaeff, a free agent after being released by Bolton Wanderers at the end of last season, has been training with Fulham and manager Chris Coleman was hoping to secure his signature before the weekend.

But Coleman said: "It's not a done deal. I was hoping it would have been done by the end of this week but at the minute it is far from being done so we'll wait and see."

yer, there is already a french connection at fulham although many of the players tigana bought have went.

would be good to see him and malbranque playing, if the move does happen

i think coleman has done well and will shape up to be a good manager, it was a shame about his career ending when he was involved in a terrible car crash
