Fulham line up Boumsong? Tuesday 8 January, 2008

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fulham are being linked with a swoop for Juventus’ French international defender Jean-Alain Boumsong.

New Cottagers boss Roy Hodgson has strong Italian connections having spent years with Inter and is believed to be discussing a possible offer for the 28-year-old.

Boumsong made 33 appearances in the Old Lady’s Serie B promotion campaign, but he has been sidelined by injury problems and slipped down the pecking order in Turin.

The Cameroon-born giant has 22 France caps, but he is widely regarded as surplus to requirements in Claudio Ranieri’s squad.

Having played for Rangers and Newcastle the 28-year-old knows what to expect from life in Britain and may opt to quit Serie A, despite reported interest from Lazio.

Boumsong arrived at Juventus in August 2006 for around £3.3m, but he could leave for half that amount.

However, Fulham may have to outbid Greek giants Olympiacos who have reportedly asked Juve for information on the unsettled stopper’s future.

Jean-Alain Boumsong’s proposed move to Fulham has been put on hold for a week because Jonathan Zebina, his fellow Juventus defender, is injured.

Yeah, but still without him we don't have backup defenders. On the other hand it shows how stupid board we have. What are they thinking that after Zebina recovers from injury none of our defenders will ever get hurt :wallbang:
