Fulham boss Jol eager to close deal for Chelsea striker Lukaku

Fulham boss Martin Jol is eager to close a deal for Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku.

The Fulham Chronicle says the Dutchman remains interested in Lukaku.

The young Belgian forward failed to make an impact in SW6 last season and is keen to go on loan to get regular football.

Jol said: "We're still looking to strengthen because we lost three strikers; Bobby [Zamora] in January and Andy [Johnson] and [Pavel] Pogrebnyak.

"We've got [Hugo] Rodallega and [Mladen] Petric and maybe we're still on the lookout for another one."
