Tottenham and Arsenal linked with moves for Fulham star
Arsenal and Tottenham have been linked with Clint Dempsey following the American’s latest goals for Fulham.
The Daily Mirror say Arsenal are keen to sign him, while The Sun claim he is a target for both the Gunners and Spurs.
Dempsey’s brace against Bolton on Saturday took his tally for the season to 21, inevitably increasing speculation that he could leave Craven Cottage in the summer.
His contract expires at the end of next season and he has been offered a new long-term deal.
Meanwhile, The Sun declare that Joey Barton was axed for QPR’s game against Manchester United because boss Mark Hughes ‘could not trust his skipper to avoid trouble’.
Hughes explained before and after the defeat at Old Trafford that he left Barton out because he is a booking away from being suspended.
The midfielder is expected to return for Wednesday’s home clash with Swansea.

I doubt if Clint will move to either of our London rivals because he has too much class to upset the fans at the cottage, he should also remember that a so called move to a bigger club by Steed Malbranque when he we to Spurs basically ruined hi carer.
Clint will leave for a Big Club but it will be for one in either Italy/Spain or France.
And when he does it will be withthe blessing of the fans at Fulham who can’t believe we have had him for so long.
