Hughes on radar for Premier League clubs

Derby midfield ace Will Hughes has become a target for number of Premier League clubs as the January transfer window draws nearer.

Chelsea, Tottenham and Fulham are all said to be interested and the Daily Mail reportsthat Chelsea and Tottenham would be prepared to pay up £10m to buy the player outright.

Hughes has caught the eye with a number of outstanding performances for Derby County this season as the Rams look to propel themselves back into Playoff contention.

Chelsea and Tottenham, despite having well stocked midfields, are excited by the potential of the young midfielder.

It is Martin Jol and Fulham, however, who see Hughes as an immediate answer to their problems in the middle of the park.
