Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Ryan Sessegnon of Fulham in the summer of 2018.
Manchester City are reported to be interested in Fulham star Ryan Sessegnon, and that is not good for Tottenham Hotspur.
According to The Sun, City have joined the race for Sessegnon, with Tottenham and Manchester United also claimed to be interested in the talented and promising youngster.
Spurs’ (reported) interest in the 17-year-old, who can operate as a left-back or as a left-winger, is nothing new.
Back in August 2017, The Telegraph claimed that the North London club had a bid of £25 million for the England Under-19 international rejected.
With Sessegnon set to cost more than £40 million in the summer of 2018, according to The Sun, City could have the advantage over Tottenham.
Not only can the Citizens cough up that much cash and offer Sessegnon a good salary, but they also have a certain Pep Guardiola as the manager.
The former Barcelona boss is arguably the best manager in the world right now, and his track record of improving young and experienced players would be very attractive to Sessegnon.
Of course, Tottenham boss Pochettino also had a good track record of working with talented young players, but City probably have the edge right now.
