Kuqi return expected

Shefki Kuqi may return early from his loan spell at Fulham as the Finnish striker looks to get his Palace career back on track.

The change in manager at Selhurst means Kuqi can look forward to starting afresh and fighting for a regular spot in the team.

Kuqi's deal at Fulham lasts until January, but it is believed the management at Craven Cottage would not stand in the way of him leaving before then.
