Jol ‘to beat Norwich, West Ham and Villa’ to signing of striker
Fulham boss Martin Jol is set to beat Norwich City, West Ham and Aston Villa to the signing of Huddersfield Town striker Jordan Rhodes, according to the Daily Mirror.
- Jol is tipped to sign at least one striker this summer.
Several clubs have been linked with the 22-year-old, who has netted 40 goals this season – making him the country’s top scorer.
The League One play-off final against Sheffield United is expected to be Rhodes’ final appearance for Huddersfield.
And it is claimed that Fulham are poised to sign him for £3.5m after making a lucrative offer.
Jol is keen to sign a forward, with Andy Johnson looking likely to leave Craven Cottage this summer.

That is true! We turned down £5million from West Ham so lets get the facts right! He won’t be going anywhere for under £7/8million and if we go up that will rise. We don’t need the money…..

Wasnt 5 million turned down in January? If they get promoted they could probably command double that figure.
