Fulham pull away from move for Real Madrid's Garcia

- Published
Fulham have started exploring alternatives to Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Garcia.
The 22-year-old was one of the options outlined by Alvaro Arbeloa, who worked with him when interim manager at the La Liga giants as well as in his role in the academy at the Bernabeu.
However, Jose Mourinho is known to rate the striker highly and is keen to keep him in the Spanish capital.
It remains a key position Fulham wish to strengthen having seen Raul Jimenez leave on a free transfer to return to former club Wolves.
Fulham also pulled out of a deal to sign PSV Eindhoven striker Ricardo Pepi towards the end of last season.
