  • Mikel Arteta insists 27yo star won't be leaving Arsenal

  • The West London club are struggling at the moment in the Premiership after a poor run of results sent them hurtling from 12th position to the dreaded relegation zone over the last month.



    Fulham said in a statement on fulhamfc.com, that Hodgson is on a “long term contract” thus negating suggestion of any makeshift arrangement.



    Hodgson said on premierleague.com: "I am delighted to have been offered this opportunity with Fulham.



    "After long talks with the chairman and the board I am convinced that we can take the club to a new level.



    "I am determined that we will overcome the current position, which I understand will be a challenge, but one that I will relish.



    "I am very much looking forward to training with the team on Sunday, and will of course be at St Andrews tomorrow to watch the vital clash against Birmingham City."
