Fulham are demanding £2.5million for Lee Cook to return to Queens Park Rangers.
The winger has failed to make one appearance for Fulham since his move from Loftus Road last summer – and was sent on a loan stint to Charlton.
Rangers are now trying to tempt him back, initially on a three-month loan, with a view to a £1.5m permanent switch.
Although Fulham will let him leave, chairman Mohamed Fayed is adamant he will not lose money on the player.
