MOUSSA Dembele admits he would be open to a move to Tottenham Hotspur.

The north Londoners have been linked with a £10million move for the Fulham forward, who still has 18 months to run on his contract.

And the Belgian international says a switch to Spurs would be a step up.

He said: "It would obviously be a step higher, and that has always been my goal.

"I did well last season when I was not injured, through many matches for Fulham. So why not step higher?"

Boss Martin Jol is desperate to keep hold of his star man, who he believes will become one of the best players in the Premier League.

Fulham are reported to have snubbed two bids from Spurs last season, but their resolve could be tested again if Harry Redknapp returns with an improved offer in January.
