Martin Jol happy with Mahamadou Diarra fitness

Fulham manager Martin Jol has said that he is happy with the fitness of new signing Mahamadou Diarra.

The injury-plagued Malian, who was without a club after leaving Monaco at the end of last season, joined the Cottagers earlier this week for the remainder of the campaign.

"Somebody tipped me off about him, I gave him a phone call and he said he is quite fit. That is the only thing I needed to know," said Jol.

"I was happy that he didn't turn us down. Maybe he will be involved on Sunday."

Fulham, who are currently 11th in the Premier League table, host struggling Wolverhampton Wanderers this weekend.
