Richards - Fulham Move Could Happen

Swansea defender Jazz Richards admits that his move to Fulham could happen as his steps towards the exit door at the Liberty Stadium appear to be getting better.

One of Wales' stars of Friday night's 1-0 win over Belgium in Cardiff has been the subject of interest this summer already having admitted towards the end of last season that he was likely to have to find another club in his bid for first team football.

Richards spent time on loan at Fulham last season and they are in pole position it seems to secure his signature on a permanent basis.

Richards' first team opportunities at Swansea have been somewhat limited and he says he has got to the stage now where he needs first team football.

This is a big season for Jazz with Wales seemingly on the march to France next summer and a first team spot at Championship level would serve him better than a bit part role at a Premier League club hence why he has the desire to move

And he admits that Fulham is a possibility for him "I loved it at Fulham when I was there, they're a great group of lads," said Richards.

"Maybe it is an option, we'll just have to wait and see.

"There are rumours, but I've not really looked into it too much. Last week I was with the Welsh team so I was concentrating on that.

"Now the Wales game is over maybe I can look into that and see what's going on.

"It's not been brought up with Kit. He is professional in what he does so we didn't really speak about it last week."
