Martin among five missing as Fulham head to Cardiff

Chris Martin is among five Fulham players missing for their FA Cup trip to Cardiff on Sunday.

On-loan striker Martin has not been involved in the last two Whites matches, against Reading and Brighton, since telling the club he wanted to return to parent club Derby.[phone][/phone]

Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic has insisted they will not agree to an early termination of his season-long loan deal.

Tomas Kalas and Michael Madl remain sidelined with injury, leaving Tim Ream and Ragnar Sigurdsson as the only available senior centre-backs.

Wingers Floyd Ayite and Neeskens Kebano are both at the Africa Cup of Nations with Togo and DR Congo respectively.
