Fulham chairman Mohamed Al Fayed is determined to keep hold of manager Roy Hodgson.
The Mail on Sunday says Hodgson's heroics have made him one of the most sought-after managers and while it would be difficult for Fulham to stand in his way should Liverpool - or even England - offer him a job, Fayed is said to be determined to keep his inspirational manager at the club for next season.
The chairman has just handed him a new rolling one-year contract.
