Fulham boss Martin Jol remains hopeful that Clint Dempsey will remain with the club.

Fulham boss Martin Jol has admitted that he is hopeful Clint Dempsey will stay at the club next season.

The 29-year-old scored his 17th Premier League goal in the Cottagers' 2-1 win over Sunderland, but he is yet to commit his future to the club.

"I want to be positive. You are talking about the scenario that a couple of players won't be here. If all the players are here we will only get better," Jol told reporters.

"I'm not surprised by Dempsey in this game, because I know that he will only get better. You talk to him and he wants to get better because of course he's not perfect, no-one is perfect, but he's improving. He knows what [the fans] think of him. Hopefully it's enough for him to sign his contract."

Fulham have moved into eighth in the Premier League table.
