Report: Fulham Join Chase For Portsmouth's Peter Crouch
The interest in the beanpole striker continues to grow, as the Cottagers enter the scene...
Fulham have joined the race to sign Portsmouth striker Peter Crouch.
As the Pompey takeover situation continues to linger on, a host of clubs are eyeing their star players, including Crouch. Now, according to The Independent, Fulham are the latest team to register their interest.
The Fratton Park club have valued Crouch at around £15 million, but some clubs have been put off by his wages, which stand at £70,000 per week. The Cottagers, however, are prepared to match that sum.
Milan are the highest-profile side to have shown an interest in Crouch recently, although their primary target is Luis Fabiano. Sunderland, Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur are all considering a move as well, but they are unsure about matching the ex-Liverpool man's wages.
Crouch made 35 appearances for Pompey last season, scoring 15 goals.
