Fulham striker Barry Hayles has warned boss Jean Tigana that he could quit the club in the summer if he is forced out of the first-team picture by new signings.

Hayles was dropped for Monday's 1-1 draw at Newcastle and believes it will be "tough" to win back his place for Sunday's FA Cup semi-final clash with Chelsea.

"I was a bit surprised to be left out on Monday, but the manager chops and changes the side," he said.

"We've got a decent squad, although it doesn't look like that judging by where we are in the league.

"We're going to bring in some new faces for next season, so that would put me further down the list.

"I'd have to decide whether to stay doing what I am doing - battling for a place - or move on.

"That will be a choice I make come the summer, and I'd also have to see what the club would have to say about it. I've got two years left on my contract after this season.

"I'm not 21 - I'm 30 on May 17 - so I want to be starting as many games as possible."
