Former Fulham striker Okaka targets England return



Former Fulham striker Stefano Okaka is on the verge of leaving Roma and has a return to England high on his agenda.

The 22-year-old spent three months on loan at Craven Cottage two seasons ago and left his mark on the club by scoring two goals in 11 Premier League appearances.

The ex-Italy Under-21 has fallen further down the pecking order at the Stadio Olimpico following the arrival of Bojan from Barcelona and his agent has revealed he is seeking a move.

"It is up to the boy to decide but it seems that there is no room for him according to coach Luis Enrique," Giampiero Pocetta said.

"If things do not change soon then we will seek a solution. Okaka is a striker of interest to Italian and English clubs and we will make a decision in January."

The forward's decision to leave the Serie A side could have been hastened by the attack he suffered from Roma fans in August for allegedly refusing to sign some autographs.

[Walsh]

I think he is a great player.

[AlFayedsChequebook]

I would happily see him here.

He is still young and could replace the departing AJ

[LBNo11]

...had we kept our regime of not bringing our own young'ans through I would have said yes. I don't think we saw the best of what he had to offer and given more playing time, which for reasons best known to RH he did not seem to get, I think he would have gelled.

Now I think it is best to get our younger players into the squad and build their confidence up and the goals will come - Kaka's Irish cousin though would still be on loan and will eventually return to the dark side. Good player though...

[HatterDon]

I'd take him back. He's the perfect "bring him on after 70 minutes to scare the bejesus out of a tired defense" player. As a matter of fact, bringing Okaka and Kasami in at 65-70 minutes could get us a few points over the season.

[LRCN]

before sa, gladly, but we dont really need him now. rate him higher than sa but not if we're gonna spend a few million on him.

[MJG]

In a shot,he has something just needs the right teacher.

[Whiteroom]

I would definitely take him. He looked sharp in the games I saw him in. I wonder whether we would have a better chance than other clubs?

[AlFayedsChequebook]

Especially if he could do this again:

[FatFreddysCat]

Didn't think he got much of a chance, but dont rate him much. Sa or like the McBride  Sa yes Sa  will prove to be a real find and hopefully Ruiz will live up to his price tag. A big no from Fulham's greatest manager  :008:

[Mitch]

Don't see why not. He's not ready to be the next Cherno Samba just yet!

[Burt]

Yes, if the money side of things is sensible.

[bigalffc]

I liked what I saw of him when he was here and was disapointed he didn't get more games. Definitely want him to join us. :54:

[Edwatch_Winston_Malone]

I didn't really notice him here the first time.  Did he actually do anything?

[Lighthouse]

We have just two central strikers in our squad. Yes I would welcome him back.
