Hugo Rodallega eyes River Plate transfer away from Fulham

Fulham forward Hugo Rodallega has expressed his interest in joining Argentinian side River Plate following their relegation from the Premier League.

The former Wigan Athletic striker has caught the eye of River Plate officials and Rodallega is keen on the switch abroad.

"I am going to help for my transfer to River to be done. I think that the negotiation is not going to be easy, but I would love to have the chance of playing at River," he told TyC Sports.

"I would like a change in my career and River is a very important team that is playing in many competitions this year and the next."

Rodallega, 29, has scored just five times in 42 appearances for the Cottagers since joining in 2012.
