Newcastle knocked back by Fulham
Newcastle United, 11:04, September 18, 2009 ,
Fulham boss Roy Hodgson says he has no intention of allowing striker Diomansy Kamara to join Championship side Newcastle.
The Magpies tried to land the Senegal international during the last transfer window but Hodgson insists he is needed for the Europa League campaign.
He said: "There's no truth in the stories that he's going to Newcastle. Just before the transfer window closed, Chris Hughton contacted me and asked if it was a possibility - and I said 'no'.
"Three or four days later, someone else at Newcastle asked our board if there was a chance they could take him on loan."
Kamara was on target in Thursday night's 1-1 draw at CSKA Sofia.
