Fulham face renewed competition for Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi after Everton and Nottingham Forest entered the race to sign the winger.
The 22-year-old has verbally agreed terms over a move to Craven Cottage and is desperate to leave Chelsea to get his career back on track.
Hudson-Odoi is willing to take a significant pay cut to leave Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are frustrated Fulham will not pay the £8million asking price but the Cottagers believe the Blues are demanding too much as they will soon save more than £120,000 a week in wages.
