Fulham striker Moussa Dembele keen on PSG return in the future

Fulham striker Moussa Dembele has been attracting interest from Tottenham, but the Frenchman insists he wants to return to boyhood club Paris Saint-Germain.

Dembele, 19, has netted 12 goals in 36 Championship games this season as 21st place Fulham struggle against relegation.

The striker left PSG for Fulham in 2012 and his contract expires this summer, with sources telling ESPN FC that Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is keen to snap him up. However, Dembele has revealed his preference if the newly crowned French champions come calling.

"Like every Parisian, I dream of playing for PSG," he told L'Equipe. "Why could it not happen some day? If they want me...

"I left in 2012 when [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic and [Ezequiel] Lavezzi joined the club. I would have gotten little playing time. PSG were not counting on me.

"I know that some players have gotten their chance since, like Jean-Kevin Augustin, but I preferred to leave and try my luck elsewhere."
