Diarra confirms Fulham departure

Fulham boss Martin Jol has decided against offering new terms to Mahamadou Diarra.

The People says Diarra, who was released by the Londoners last summer, was set to win a new contract after recovering from a knee injury.

But manager Martin Jol has now decided against re-signing the former Real Madrid midfielder, amid fears over his long-term fitness.

Instead, the 32-year-old is poised to join Greek side Panathinaikos.

He said: "I can still play at a good level - but it won't be with Fulham."
