Alan Curbishley hints at interest in vacant Fulham job

Fulham coach Alan Curbishley suggests that he could be interested in becoming the Cottagers' new full-time head coach.

Alan Curbishley has refused to rule himself out of the running for the vacant Fulham head coach role.

The former Charlton Athletic and West Ham United boss is already part of the coaching staff at Fulham and is thought to have been leading training since Kit Symons was sacked at the weekend.

When asked if he would be keen on returning to management with the Cottagers, Curbishley, who left West Ham in 2008, did not rule it out.

"It's up to other people," Curbishley, 58, told BBC London Sport. "They need to think about what kind of manager they want.

"It is an attractive job and I'm sure there are going to be lots of people who will be applying."

Symons was dismissed after Fulham's 5-2 home defeat to Birmingham City on Saturday which left them 12th in the Championship table.

Burton Albion manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink is the current favourite to replace Symons at Craven Cottage.
