Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has confirmed Shaun Wright-Phillips has demanded a transfer.
Fulham have been trying to arrange a deal for Wright-Phillips and the winger has also attracted interest from Newcastle United and Bolton Wanderers.
"This will affect that," Mancini said. "It's true he has put in a transfer request and I understand that because he is not playing.
"But we haven't had an offer for Wright-Phillips and it would be difficult to let him leave now."
