Martin Jol has revealed he is set to snub Fulham to stay with Dutch giants Ajax.
Former Tottenham manager Jol was expected to be named the Fulham boss this week after holding talks with the West London club about succeeding Roy Hodgson at Craven Cottage.
Jol had earlier indicated he was prepared to leave Ajax and move to Fulham because of uncertainty over the futures of a number of star players at Ajax.
However, it appears Jol has agreed to stick with Ajax after last-ditch talks with the club's hierarchy.
"They (Fulham) were interested but in principle I will stay at Ajax," Jol told De Telegraaf.
The news will come as a blow to Fulham as they had thought they had landed their man to replace Hodgson and means they will have go back to the drawing board as they search for a new manager.
