Fulham manager Kit Symons has expressed his confidence in the prospect of Moussa Dembele signing a new deal at Craven Cottage.
The 19-year-old striker, whose contract expires at the end of the season, scored twice as the Cottagers thrashed Bristol City 4-1 at Ashton Gate on Saturday.
Regarding talk of interest in Dembele from big clubs in England and Europe, Symons said: "Moussa is a player we will work on to improve. Talks over a new contract are in progress and we want him to sign.
I am very hopeful it will happen. He is at the right club to develop his game because we have some good people to offer him guidance."
The Frenchman has now scored four goals in his last two games and eight in 16 appearances in all competitions this season.
