Fulham will have to prepare themselves for a host of bids for some of their prized possessions as teams attempt to take advantage of the Cottagers' relegation by raiding their squad.
One of those being courted by another club is Kieran Richardson, who has emerged as a transfer target for Crystal Palace.
The 29-year-old finished only his second season at Craven Cottage, having moved from Sunderland in August 2012. The versatile left sided footballer played in almost all of Fulham's games this season, but could not prevent the West London club from dropping out of the top flight.
Richardson, however, may be staying in the Barclays Premier League with the latest reports suggesting that Crystal Palace may move for the former Manchester United player once the transfer window opens again.
Tony Pulis, who took the helm of the Eagles when they were relegation certainties, earned accolades for his triumph in guiding the South London club to safety.
Pulis is now hoping to build on his first year in charge and Richardson is one of the players earmarked to help establish Palace as a Premier League mainstay.
Fulham are yet to comment on Richardson's future, but it is unlikely that Felix Magath will want the club to sell the left back.
