Premier League newbies, Fulham have reportedly joined the race for the services of in-demand Queen Park Rangers attacking midfielder, Eberechi Eze.
The online edition of Sky Sports UK had reported that The Cottagers have lined up the Nigerian as their potential signing as they prepare for life in the topflight though they face competition from a number of interested suitors.
Eze was conspicuously missing from the Hoops pre-season friendly game against AFC Wimbledon on Saturday, reigniting speculations over his future as Premier League interest in the forward continue to intensify.
At least five clubs in the English topflight have been linked with the signature of the 22-year-old this summer, with Crystal Palace, Newcastle United, West Brom and West Ham all credited with an interest in the player who is valued in the region of £20m by QPR.
"He's a QPR player but there are a few bits and pieces going on. What we have to do is just respect that and look after a guy who has come through the ranks here, and he's one of ours," Warburton said.
"We look after all of our players. It was the right decision [not to play him] today and we'll see what happens in the coming days."
Asked if he thought a deal could be included in the next few days, he told the British satellite television channel: "I know he is coming to training on Monday.
"If that changes I will let you know. Any situation for any player is resolved when the value of a player is met, that's how you resolve a situation."
