Mark Noble has reportedly rejected the chance to join Fulham.

The West Ham United midfielder was lined up by Cottagers manager Martin Jol as a replacement for the departed Moussa Dembele, but the former England Under-21 international has turned them down, preferring to stay at the Hammers, according to Goal.com.

The 25-year-old is currently involved in a contract dispute at West Ham, but it is thought that he has no intention plying his trade at Craven Cottage.

Noble was voted by West Ham fans as their player of the season last term.
