Jimmy Bullard wants to stay with Fulham.

The News of the World says Bullard has sensationally offered to take a 20 per cent pay cut to stay at Craven Cottage.

Fulham star Bullard looks set for a January move with Tottenham leading the chase for the inspirational midfielder.

The Cottagers claim they cannot afford to keep their player - but have not yet offered him a new deal.

And Bullard, who is paid £25,000-a-week, has told close friends he is even prepared to cut his wages by £5,000-a-week to remain at the club.

One source close to London-born Bullard, who joined Fulham for £2.5million from Wigan in 2006, said: "Jimmy loves Fulham and doesn't want to leave. He's had four meetings with the club and has repeatedly asked them to make him an offer.

"But they have not done so - even though Jimmy has told them he would take 20 per cent less in his pay."
