Fulham confident on Hangeland deal

Fulham manager Martin Jol remains confident that his club can secure the long term future of Norway international full back Brede Hangeland. The defender has been locked in contract talks with the Cottagers for over a year.

"We are talking to [Hangeland]," he told the Fulham and Hammersmith Chronicle. "He knows what we've offered him is good so hopefully he will make a decision in the next month or so. We're optimistic."


Fulham's centre back is reportedly holding out for more than double his current salary at Craven Cottage.
