Coleman would like to keep Bridge

No negotiations have been held with Chelsea yet but Coleman fears he may not be able to afford the England left back.

"We want to keep Wayne but an obstacle will be the price," he said.

"We don't know what Chelsea want for him. They may not even want to sell him. If they do at what price?."

Bridge played 12 Premiership games for Fulham after his move to the Cottage in January.
