Fulham manager Martin Jol dismisses Clint Dempsey rumours


Fulham manager Martin Jol has distanced himself from speculation linking former player Clint Dempsey with a return to the West London outfit. 

Dempsey left the Cottagers in the 2012 summer transfer window, for London rivals Tottenham Hotspur, but couldn't fit into the first-team regurlarly as he failed to hit form throughout the campaign.

The 30-year-old made a move to the MLS with Seattle Sounders in the summer, and reports have emerged claiming that he could make a return to England in the winter transfer window, when the MLS season comes to a close.


When asked by the media on a loan switch for Clint Dempsey, Martin Jol dismissed the reports claiming the rumours to be "unbelievable".

"It's unbelievable speculation, which is nice," He said. "I never talk about players, especially when they are not here."


Fulham are currently placed 14th in the League table.
