Fulham boss Jol eager to extend deal for Arsenal's Frimpong

Fulham boss Martin Jol is eager to extend the loan of Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong into next season.

Frimpong is due to return to the Emirates in the summer, but Jol is hoping to keep the 21-year-old enforcer at the club.

"He is on loan at the moment and it would be quite expensive to take him (permanently), but if there was an opportunity to take him on loan again, I would probably do that," said the Dutchman.

"It is quite a nice position to be in, to get a loan player you don't have to pay a transfer fee. It is a good way of doing things."
