Fulham are reportedly interested in signing 27-year-old Premier League winner Demarai Gray from Everton this summer.

A report from The Sun claims that Fulham are keen on signing 27-year-old Premier League winger Demarai Gray. Everton will look to recoup around £10 million from the sale of the well-travelled attacker.

Gray has done a reasonably good job at Everton since joining the club, and he could be a useful acquisition for Fulham. The London club are reportedly looking to add more quality and depth to their attack.

He will add pace, flair and goals to the Fulham attack. He is well-settled in the Premier League and could make an immediate impact as well. It will be interesting to see if Everton are prepared to sanction his departure in the coming weeks.

They have already signed Arnaut Danjuma this summer and the 27-year-old Everton winger could find himself falling down the pecking order. Meanwhile, recent reports linked Fulham with several attackers, including Raul Jimenez.

Apparently, Gray is valued at £10 million by Everton, and Fulham are willing to shell out £7 million for him. It remains to be seen whether the two clubs can reach a compromise regarding the fee.

Meanwhile, Danjuma had a disappointing loan spell at Tottenham Hotspur during the second half of last season, and he will look to get his career back on track with regular football next season. A move to Everton has come at a good time for him and he will look to showcase his qualities in the Premier League.

As for Gray, the 27-year-old Premier League winner joined Everton in 2021 for a fee of around £1.7 million, and the Toffees are likely to make a hefty profit on him if they decide to sell him. The 27-year-old is at the peak of his powers and he will look to establish himself as a key player for Fulham if he joins the club.

The London club will be without Manor Solomon next season, and Gray will look to replace his output in the side. Solomon has completed a move to Tottenham during the ongoing transfer window, but he impressed during his loan spell at Fulham. It will be interesting to see if Gray can fill the void left by him in the attack.
