King wants to play Gunners

Fulham's new signing Marlon King has admitted he wants to play against Arsenal in the Premiership. The player joined today for £5 million from Championship side Watford.

King told Sky Sports News: "I'm hoping so, I've just got to get myself on the training ground, get familiar with the boys and kick on from there.

"Once I knew of Fulham's interest there was only one thing on my mind. Obviously I'm disappointed to leave Watford because I've got a lot of fond memories, but this is a new chapter in my life.

"Adrian Boothroyd didn't want me to go, but I knew in my heart it was an opportunity to seize upon. I'm looking forward to the challenge.

"I wouldn't be here if I didn't think they had a chance to stay up."
