Fulham forward Moussa Dembele is currently undergoing a medical with English Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur ahead of a proposed move.

The Lilywhites have beaten competition from Ligue 1 side Monaco for the signature of the highly rated teenager.




The 19-year-old has entered the final six months of his contract with the Craven Cottage outfit and has refused to sign an extension with the Championship outfit.

According to the Press Association, the Frenchman will remain at Craven Cottage for the remainder of the season and will join the White Hart Lane outfit in the summer.
 


The deal is in the best interests of all parties involved as Fulham are duly compensated for the player and also get to keep the 19-year-old until the summer.

Dembele will continue to feature for the Cottagers during the second half of the campaign and will gain some invaluable experience.

Spurs on the other hand get a talented striker with more experience to provide backup to top scorer Harry Kane.

The 19-year-old forward is Fulham’s second highest scorer for the season behind Ross McCormack, with 11 goals from 29 appearances in all competitions this term.

Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino had hinted at a move for the 19-year-old in his pre-match press conference ahead of the today's clash against Colchester.
