Fulham are in talks to sign Demarai Gray from fellow Premier League side Everton
Everton continue talks over Demarai Gray sale after Fulham agree personal terms. The 27-year-old joined the Toffees from Bayer Leverkusen for £1.7m in 2021 and has gone on to make 75 appearances and score 12 goals.
Crystal Palace, Turkish Super Lig side Besiktas and clubs in Saudi Arabia have also been interested in signing the Jamaica international. But Gray’s preference is a move to Fulham, who require reinforcements in attack.
Former Leicester player Gray only recently returned to training after competing at the Concacaf Gold Cup. He would provide an option to boss Marco Silva after Manor Solomon moved to Tottenham following the end of his loan spell, while Wales international winger Dan James returned to parent club Leeds.
The Cottagers have signed striker Raul Jimenez from Wolves and centre-back Calvin Bassey from Ajax so far this summer. Meanwhile, reports suggesting Fulham have reached an agreement to sign Juventus full-back Luca Pellegrini are wide of the mark.
