Lawrie not after Zamora

Fulham boss Lawrie Sanchez has said he will not be bringing in Bobby Zamora in the transfer window. The Cottagers boss is reported to be preparing an improved £4million swoop for the 26-year-old in January, but has denied a fresh approach had been made.

"There is money still available. Bobby was a player we asked about during the close season and were told no," he said.

"I've seen that we've been linked with several players all of a sudden, I don't know where that's come from because there's nothing we can do right now.

"We wouldn't make our interest known earlier because you look foolish if you don't get the player. It alerts other people, too."
