In a rather shocking exhibition of ‘player power’, Fulham appear to have ended their interest in signing former striker Ross McCormack, according to a report by the Sun.

The Aston Villa striker, 30, appears up for grabs following his altercation with Villa boss Steve Bruce involving reportedly faulty gates and ultimately the striker missing training.

McCormack has been relegated to training with the under-23’s and a transfer appears inevitable.

Fulham had been one club in the running to re-sign their former talisman striker from Aston Villa until boss Slavisa Jokanovic brought the idea up to his players – who were decidedly against the idea.

The issues the players reportedly have with McCormack must be serious, given the fact he scored 38 goals in two seasons with the Cottagers and would be an asset on the pitch to many Championship sides.

Fulham were downed 1-0 by Jaap Stam’s Reading at the Madejski Stadium on Wednesday night, and will surely be looking to delve into the transfer market this week.
