Adel Taarabt on cusp of Fulham loan

Attacking midfielder Adel Taarabt has all but completed a loan move from Queens Park Rangers to Fulham. Martin Jol has decided to bring in the player to bolster his attacking options for the new season.

The Moroccan international will join Fulham on a season long loan and will be pushed out of QPr as the club look to reduce their wage bill for the coming season.


Taarabt said: "I will have my medical. I am glad to find Martin Jol here, who bought me from Lens to Tottenham and who tried to recruit me when he was on the bench for Ajax and Hamburg.

"I am also very happy to have found a solution to stay in London where I lived for seven years. 

"Even if I have to move from the north of the city to near Chelsea."
