Fulham ahead of Everton for Darlington starlet Burn

Fulham are now favourites to sign Darlington's highly-rated youngster Dan Burn after Everton moved to sign the player last week. It appears the Cottagers are now at the head of the queue for the Quakers youngster, who has also been linked with Newcastle United, Chelsea and Manchester City.

Quakers boss Mark Cooper told the Northern Echo: "The transfer window is closed so nobody can sign for anybody until the end of the season.

"There's a lot of interest in him. He's been down to Fulham, who are very keen on him, and there are other clubs that are also very keen on him.

"There are loads of clubs after him, everybody wants him, and rightly so. Whoever gets him will do so at the end of the season.

"For me it's important that he goes to the right club, a club that will look after him and fulfil his potential. It's not a piece of meat that we're selling."
