3. Clint Dempsey
Could Fulham be about to re-sign former star Clint Dempsey? Dempsey spent five years at Craven Cottage between 2007-12, scoring 60 goals in 225 appearances for the club, before being sold to Tottenham for
£6 million last summer. However, his first season at Tottenham wasn't a successful one, and he was sold less than 12 months later to MLS side Seattle Sounders having failed to make much of an impact at White Hart Lane. The American could be set for a return to England though as an agreement stipulated in his contract with the US side says he
can move on loan in the off-season. Spurs have first refusal but are unlikely to take up the offer given they have a packed midfield, meaning Fulham could re-sign their former star, though will have to do battle with Everton and Aston Villa, who are also interested. Dempsey was a key player for Fulham during his time at the club, with his performances alerting the likes of Liverpool at the time, and he was twice-named Fulham Player of the Season, in 2010-11 and 2011-12.
