Chris Hughton is open to joining Fulham as new manager Martin Jol's No2.

The People says the pair used to work together at Tottenham and Jol made it clear to the Cottagers' board he would like to work with him again.

Hughton is currently in the running for the vacant Cardiff job, and wants to hold out to see if he is offered any managerial post.

But if no No.1 job comes along by August, he is prepared to step in as Jol's right-hand man at Fulham.
