Report: Tottenham still in talks to sign Fulham’s Ryan Sessegnon

Tottenham Hotspur are still pursuing Fulham’s Ryan Sessegnon.

According to the London Evening Standard, Tottenham Hotspur remain locked in talks with Fulham about a potential deal for Ryan Sessegnon.

Sessegnon, 19, has emerged as one of English football’s brightest young talents with Fulham, hitting 16 goals and eight assists to help the Cottagers to promotion last year.

The teenager found life a little more difficult in his first Premier League season, notching just two goals and six assists, but he’s still done enough to attract major interest.

It’s claimed that Sessegnon has made it clear that he wants to join Tottenham, and they’re still in talks with Fulham about a deal having been linked with him recently.

However, the two clubs are some way apart in their valuations, meaning that unless Spurs can make a breakthrough soon, Sessegnon may miss out on his preferred move to North London.

Capable of playing at left back or on the left wing, Sessegnon appears to be perfect for Spurs in terms of his versatility, as well as his pace and huge potential.

With just one year left on his deal, Tottenham will be hoping to secure a great deal of around £25million, but Fulham will remain convinced that they can get big money for one of English football’s top teenagers.
