FULHAM boss Chris Coleman is facing a battle to keep Papa Boupa Diop after his contract talks were dramatically put on hold.

Diop, a target for Arsenal, was set to sign a new contract extension but director Lee Hoos - who was in charge of negotiating contracts - was ousted in a boardroom reshuffle and the club has now told all of its players that new deals are officially on hold.
