Al Fayed may exit Fulham

Fulham and Mohamed Al Fayed have declined to comment on speculation the Egyptian is preparing to sell the club after 16 years.

The 84-year-old has transformed Fulham from a third-tier outfit to an established Premier League side since taking over in 1997, but reports suggest the former Harrods owner is now willing to sell.

Fulham and a representative of Al Fayed opted not to comment when contacted yesterday, with suggestions that Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shahid Khan is the interested party.
