Cottagers back for Cousin
22 Jan 2008 - 15:58:11
Fulham have reportedly had a £3million offer for Daniel Cousin accepted by Rangers.
The Cottagers had earlier seen a £2million bid for the Gabon forward rejected by the Glasgow club before returning with an improved offer.
Cousin, who moved to Ibrox from Lens last summer, has scored nine goals in 26 league appearances so far this season.
Speaking earlier in the day, Rangers manager Walter Smith claimed he was keen to hold on to the speedy frontman despite the player's agent suggesting a move was on the cards.
"We have had an inquiry from Fulham and we turned down that initial inquiry and up to now we have not heard anything else," he told the club's official website.
"He has been scoring goals for us recently and you would always want to hold onto your players if you can.
"Unless Fulham come back in with another offer we will continue to have him."
