Fulham are reportedly considering sacking manager Martin Jol and replacing him with Brighton & Hove Albion boss Gus Poyet.

Fulham are reportedly pondering whether to replace manager Martin Jol with Brighton & Hove Albion boss Gus Poyet.

There are suggestions that Poyet could leave the Championship outfit following their failure to reach the playoff final due to a 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace over two legs.

The Uruguayan is thought to be frustrated by the lack of funds at the Amex Stadium, while Fulham chiefs are believed to be concerned about the club's slump of five consecutive defeats towards the end of the season.

Jol agreed a one-year contract extension earlier this season, but the Cottagers are believed to be considering a managerial shift, with Poyet being a contender, according to The Telegraph.

The Dutchman has been Fulham manager since 2011.
