Napoli enter race for Dembele

 

Napoli are ready to battle Manchester United and Tottenham for the signature of Fulham striker Moussa Dembele, reports the London Evening Standard.

 

Dembele, 19, has been heavily linked with a move to United in the last week after scoring 9 goals in 20 appearances in the Championship this season.

 

The French forward was part of the Fulham squad that lost to Chelsea in the FA Youth Cup final in 2014 and he has since gone on to establish himself as a first-team regular at the Cottagers.

 

However, Fulham face a real battle to keep hold of the teenager, with United, Spurs and now Napoli interested in signing the forward, who has 18 months left to run on his current deal.
