Coleman contract talks at Fulham drag on

FULHAM boss Chris Coleman hopes to sign a new contract with the club soon, but admits negotiations are beginning to drag.

Coleman declared nearly a month ago that he was close to agreeing a new long-term deal, but the saga continues with just one game of the season remaining.

The Welshman is ready to sign but the stumbling block is his assistant Steve Kean who has yet to thrash out terms which would keep him at Craven Cottage next season.
