Liverpool rebuffed by Fulham over Bobby Zamora interest
During Liverpool's negotiations to sign Paul Konchesky, the possibility of securing Zamora was also raised with the Fulham hierarchy.[LNB]Both players worked with Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson at Craven Cottage and he is a great admirer of Zamora as well as Konchesky who has been desperate to move to Anfield.[LNB] Related ArticlesHodgson makes Torres pleaLiverpool 1 West Brom 0Hodgson's forward thinkingLiverpool sign Raul MeirelesMascherano: Barca move 'a dream'Liverpool to sign MeirelesFulham are adamant that Zamora, who would be in the England squad but for injury, is not for sale. The 29 year-old has undergone a dramatic turnaround in his career after almost being sold to Hull City last summer.[LNB]Liverpool are also considering a bid for West Ham's Carlton Cole with Hodgson determined to add a powerful striker to his squad before the transfer window closes today.[LNB]An offer is yet to be made for Cole and there will be serious concerns, given his fitness record, as to whether he can adequately pass a medical. Its also unclear whether West Ham would be willing to sell at this late stage.[LNB]Everton last night rejected a 'derisory' offer from Tottenham for midfielder Steven Pienaar following Harry Redknapp's attempt to seal a deadline day deal for the South Africa international.[LNB]With Pienaar in the final year of his contract at Goodison Park, Spurs are understood to have offered in the region of £2 million for the 28 year-old. But Everton swiftly rejected the offer and will attempt to resist any further bids for the former Ajax midfielder ahead of today's transfer deadline.[LNB]Pienaar, who has also been linked with Manchester United since the end of last season, has rejected the offer of a new deal on Merseyside and Everton face the prospect of losing the player as a free agent at the end of the season. [LNB]Having failed with Pienaar, Spurs may make a last ditch attempt to sign Scott Parker, from West Ham, with Robbie Keane offered as the bait.[LNB]They have already had a £8 million bid rejected, but with Parker yet to commit to a new contract, they believe they could lure the England midfielder to North London. [LNB]Spurs have, however, been frustrated in their attempt to sign Brazil striker Luis Fabiano after he signed a contract extension at Sevilla.[LNB]Chairman Daniel Levy made contact with Sevilla last week over a deal, but Fabiano yesterday agreed to remain at Sevilla until 2013.[LNB]
