£20m-Rated Premier League Target May Leave Fulham This Summer If They Miss Out On Promotion

Fulham's Tom Cairney may be allowed to leave Craven Cottage in the summer, if Slavisa Jokanovic's team miss out on promotion to the Premier League.

Cairney scored the Cottagers' opening goal against QPR on Saturday as Fulham climbed to 3rd in the Championship despite surrendering a two-goal lead to draw with their London rivals.

West Ham had a bid for Cairney of £18m rejected in January but they may be able to lure the 27-year-old away in the summer if Fulham's promotion bid falters. The Mirror claims that Watford and Newcastle will rival the Hammers for Cairney's signature, with a £20m fee rumoured.
