Kamara: Happy with choice

Diomansy Kamara admits the future plans for Fulham swayed him to move to Craven Cottage rather than West Ham United.

The Senegal forward was a £6million signing from West Brom in the summer after also attracting interest from West Ham.

He opted for Fulham and scored his first Premier League goal for the club with his acrobatic late equaliser in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Tottenham.

Kamara revealed The Hammers made a concerted effort to take him to Upton Park as he sought a return to the top flight.

But he was impressed with what Lawrie Sanchez had to offer and feels Fulham have the potential to claim a place in the top 10.

"West Ham wanted me a lot, but for me the Fulham project is different," said Kamara.

"It's a very young team and there is a very strong ambition to finish in the top 10."
