Everton, Tottenham target Dembele unlikely to sign new Fulham deal

Everton and Tottenham's hopes of landing Fulham striker Moussa Dembele have received a boost, with the Cottagers unlikely to re-sign the 19-year-old beyond the end of his current contract.

Sky Sports is reporting that Fulham are determined to keep Dembele until the end of the current campaign, but are resigned to the fact the Frenchman will become a free agent during the summer.

It is understood the Cottagers would not completely miss out on a fee for Dembele however, with the player's homegrown status entitling them to compensation agreed either privately with the club he joins or via tribunal.

Dembele has scored 10 goals in 24 appearances for Fulham this season.
