Tottenham's Kranjcar never a target for Fulham

Fulham boss Mark Hughes has denied the Cottagers have ever considered making a move for Tottenham midfielder Niko Kranjcar. The Cottagers are reported to have turned their attention to Kranjcar following the collapse of their attempt to sign Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips.

"We're not interested in Niko. We've got a lot of midfield players and he's not a priority for us," he said.

"We've expressed an interest in Shaun. It's slowed and I'm not too hopeful.

"We tried to make it happen but for a number of reasons it seems to be less likely as the window closes."

Hughes also admitted that Liverpool's Paul Konchesky is unlikely to return to Craven Cottage this month.

"There was interest and discussion was mooted, but that's not likely to progress in this window," he said.

"It's something we may revisit but it won't happen this month."
