Fulham still keen on Etuhu

FULHAM boss Roy Hodgson is continuing to track Sunderland midfielder Dickson Etuhu.
It has been revealed that Hodgson had been hoping to land the Nigerian in a swap deal involving David Healy, but failed.
Healy eventually joined the Black Cats in a £2million switch, but Hodgson has refused to concede defeat in his efforts to land Etuhu.
"We are still working on that deal," he said.
"Although we've signed a lot of players this summer we've still got only a 21-man squad really - and we'll lose a lot of that to the internationals next week.
"We've not got players who play for England but so many who go all around the world when these international weeks come up. It takes a lot away from our training and preparation."
