Olympiacos deny reports that Kostas Mitroglou is on the verge of joining Fulham

Olympiacos have denied reports that Kostas Mitroglou is on the verge of joining Fulham.

The striker had been linked to a move to Craven Cottage in the Greek media, with claims that the London side will look to pay £11.5m to sign the 25-year-old to a four-year contract.

In a statement, the club confirmed that they will continue talks with Fulham tomorrow, but that the club will have to pay a higher fee.

Last month, Mitroglou signed a contract extension until the end of 2017 with the club.
