Fulham, Everton show interest in Issa Diop?

Fulham and Everton are the latest in a growing list of clubs to have shown an interest in Toulouse defender Issa Diop, according to a report.

The 21-year-old is understood to have also been watched up close by Premier League sides Arsenal and Tottenham towards the tail end of last season, while Inter Milan and Barcelona have been touted as possible destinations.

Diop has just completed his third campaign with Toulouse, racking up 85 appearances for the Ligue 1 side in that time, and he has also been capped five times for France at Under-21s level.

Fulham and Everton have been left impressed by the centre-back's showings, with the Daily Mail claiming that they may both be willing to test Toulouse's resolve this summer.

A bid of £26m would likely be enough to prise Diop away from the Stadium Municipal.
