Fulham eye Jay Emmanuel-Thomas?

Fulham are reportedly prepared to offer Jay Emmanuel-Thomas the chance to end his stay with Ipswich Town.

Championship outfit Ipswich put the 22-year-old attacker up for sale along with Michael Chopra last month in an attempt to ease the wage bill at Portman Road.

It is believed that Fulham manager Martin Jol is keen to recruit the former Arsenal trainee and sent scouts to watch him in action on a number of occasions last season.

"Fulham like the look of Jay and are considering making a move, although they would not be prepared to pay a fee," a source told the East Anglian Daily Times.

"He has been in and out of the Ipswich team but, with the extra finances clubs like Fulham have from being in the Premier League, they would be prepared to take a chance on a player who they feel can turn a game."

Emmanuel-Thomas joined Ipswich from the Gunners in 2011.
