No Pandiani to Fulham

Fulham boss Roy Hodgson has denied the rumours that Walter Pandiani is on the verge of completing a move to the Cottagers from Spanish side Osasuna this summer.

"We've been linked with Pandiani but I can honestly say to you his name has never been mentioned in the eight months I've been at the club," he said on Setanta Sports News.

"In fact, to be perfectly honest, I've forgotten he existed. I've no idea where he plays and it's rather strange to say to me we've been linked with this player and that player when I have no idea where that comes from."
