Fulham may look to step up their interest in Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall after Everton registered their interest in the Chelsea midfielder.
Dewsbury-Hall has made 36 appearances across all competitions since following Enzo Maresca from Leicester to Chelsea last summer.
However, only 19 of those outings have come from the start, with only two starts and 259 minutes to his name in the Premier League.
Despite playing an important role in Chelsea’s Uefa Conference League and Fifa Club World Cup triumphs, Dewsbury-Hall will have an eye on a move away from Stamford Bridge in a bid to establish himself as a key player in a Premier League side.

Fulham have already made a ‘formal approach’ for Dewsbury-Hall, though it’s understood it could take just north of £30million to secure his services.
But that price tag could come as music to the ears of Everton, who are in desperate need of a new midfielder after Abdoulaye Doucoure’s contract expired and Orel Mangala’s loan ended.

According to the Times [August 3], the Toffees have now shown interest in Dewsbury-Hall, who could become an alternative target after being put off by Juventus’ £40m asking price for Douglas Luiz.
David Moyes only has Idrissa Gana Gueye, James Garner and Tim Iroegbunam available to him at the base of midfield.
But with forward reinforcements also required, getting someone of Dewsbury-Hall’s quality and saving £10m on a move for Luiz could prove priceless.
With that in mind, the pressure is now on Fulham to go back to their West London neighbours to move negotiations along.

Fulham are making further enquiries to their London neighbours this summer, with Arsenal’s Oleksandr Zinchenko also on their radar.
Zinchenko has fallen behind Myles Lewis-Skelly and Riccardo Calafiori in Mikel Arteta’s left-back pecking order, and will now be looking for a move away from the Emirates in order to secure regular playing time.
What’s more, Antonee Robinson has been among the best left-backs in the Premier League over the last few years and is regularly linked with a Craven Cottage exit.
Of course, Zinchenko has the added benefit of playing 32 times as a central midfielder during his career to date (Transfermarkt) and often drifting into that position even when starting at full-back.
Marco Silva may well see the Ukraine international as a viable option, regardless of what happens with Robinson this summer — especially if they’re pipped to Dewsbury-Hall’s signing by Everton.
