Zamora nearing Fulham return

Fulham will soon be boosted by the return of striker Bobby Zamora after he managed to score on his return to action in the reserves on Tuesday.

The 30-year old was in career-best form before breaking his leg against Wolves on September 11 and the Cottagers have been missing him up forward but it seems he will soon be included in Mark Hughes' matchday squads.

Zamora scored in the 3-1 loss to Brighton in a friendly at Motspur Park training ground and although Hughes was delighted to see him back in action, he said the hard work has to continue for him to push into the first team.

"He understands that the squad is evolving now and the squad is getting bigger and stronger," he said.

"Bobby knows he needs to work hard to get back in the side but, given his desire to get back in, that shouldn't faze him at all."
