Martin JOL is planning a bold move to bring £7million-rated Barcelona forward Jeffren to Fulham.
Jeffren, one of the stars of Spain's progress to last night's Euro Under-21 Championship final, is being offloaded by Barca this summer. Jol wants to inject youth and pace into an ageing Fulham side and sees 23-year-old Jeffren as the ideal acquisition.
Yet the Dutchman knows he will face some serious rivals – Liverpool included.
Jeffren turned down a swap deal which would have taken him to Champions League new boys Udinese, with Alexis Sanchez moving in the opposite direction.
He has been a regular on Barca's bench but has been told he will never be a first choice with the European champions.
Jol is also hopeful of signing his former Ajax striker Mounir El Hamdaoui, an £8m-rated Moroccan international.
Bit of a step up than being linked with Nicky Maynard and the like last year :)
Both would be great signings :) happy times
Reading this makes me happy.
