Report: Fulham interested in Chelsea midfielder and West Ham United target Ruben Loftus-Cheek

According to The Daily Telegraph, Fulham are interested in signing Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek on a season-long loan, but any move may depend on whether or not they can sign defenders on permanent deals.

Blues boss Frank Lampard is open to letting him leave temporarily before the transfer window shuts, but his options may be limited.

West Ham United are also keen on the England international, and are among a number of clubs that have shown a strong interest, but they have been scared by his £150,000-a-week wages and his injury record.
