US striker Ricardo Pepi's expected transfer to Fulham is now off due to a disagreement over a key issue, with the two clubs unable to agree on when the deal would be finalised. The issue of responsibility for the player was a crucial issue, as Fulham wanted to retain the ability to pull out of the move if Pepi suffered an injury. Despite this, PSV's director of football affairs Earnest Stewart did not rule out the possibility of an agreement for Pepi’s departure, stating that he is happy to keep a good striker at PSV.
