Jol: 'Hughes is a wonderful talent'

Fulham manager Martin Jol has described 17-year-old Derby County midfielder Will Hughes as a "wonderful talent".

Hughes is regarded as one of the biggest talents in English football and his performances in the Championship have seen him attract interest from Tottenham Hotspur.

Jol told reporters: "Believe me, there is probably 10 clubs in the Premier League that are having a look at him.

"He is one of these wonderful talents so he is always on lists. If you have a good scouting system, he will always be on the list but we will see."

Hughes has scored twice in 23 games for Derby this season.
