Fulham set to swoop on Tottenham's O'Hara

Fulham are set to swoop on Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara as his time at loanee club Portsmouth looks over.

Pompey are keen to re-sign the 23-year old who will return to Tottenham in mid-January but the south coast club are currently under a transfer embargo as they owe more than £7million in unpaid transfer fees.

Cottagers boss Roy Hodgson is hoping to bring O'Hara in if the Premier League do not give Pompey special clearance to re-sign him but the player himself admits he is unsure of what will happen.

"I do not know what the whole situation is so I am just trying to wait and see what happens," O'Hara said.

"There is a clause in the agreement where Tottenham want me to go to three clubs and if Portsmouth cannot do it then maybe I will go elsewhere.

"I am disappointed because I want to help Portsmouth out of relegation but I just want to play football."
