Fulham are expected to make a bid for Leeds United whiz Fabian Delph.

The Daily Mail says Leeds chairman Ken Bates faces another fight to hold on to teenage star Delph as Fulham look to use the cash from Jimmy Bullard's transfer.

Bates, aware of the backlash if another talented youngster was allowed to leave the club, will fight tooth and nail to keep Delph but Fulham's offer may prove too tempting even for him.
