Celtic striker Kamara has no regrets missing Fulham final

Celtic striker Diomansy Kamara says he'll be in Hamburg to support his Fulham teammates.

But Kamara insists he has no regrets about trading a Europa League final place for a barren spell at Celtic on-loan.

He told the Sunday Mail: "I watched Fulham beat Hamburg on Thursday.

"It was unbelievable and they deserved to go to the final. I'm delighted for my old team-mates. They beat reigning champions Shakhtar Donetsk as well as Juventus, Wolfsburg and Hamburg. Now they can go and overcome the Spanish team.

"I am pleased because they have a good squad, a great team spirit and a top coach. But I don't feel any frustration that I'm not part of it. Maybe if I was there we wouldn't have made it all the way! I played three games earlier in the tournament and scored twice.

"I will go to Hamburg for the final but I don't consider myself a Fulham player. When I left in the transfer window I forgot about Fulham and have done my best for Celtic. Of course I still watch out for their results because I spent three years there and have a lot of friends at the club. But I don't feel I am a Fulham player.

"I will go back at the end of the season and see what happens. I have one year left on my contract but if I can stay here then I would be happy."
