The Fulham left-back is being heavily linked with a move to Spurs.
Ryan Sessegnon of Fulham celebrates scoring his teams third goal
Tottenham Hotspur appear to be the favourites to sign Fulham wonderkid Ryan Sessegnon. The England youth international was one of the stars of the Championship last term and Spurs are now hoping to swoop on the player.
A left-back he may be, but the 17-year-old demonstrates a brilliance going forward as well. He scored seven goals from 30 appearances for Fulham last term, a great return for a full-back.

Tottenham Hotspur fans will rightly hope they sign Sessegnon, and he has a similar impact another goalscoring left-back had when he arrived at Spurs.
Gareth Bale was of a similar ilk when he arrived from Southampton in 2007. After his initial struggles at Spurs he went on to become a superstar at White Hart Lane before eventually joining Real Madrid for a world record fee and becoming a hero for the Welsh national team.

Tottenham fans will undoubtedly be hoping they get their hands on Sessegnon this summer, as he will be an incredible asset to put in the team.
If he then grows to have a similar impact that Bale did at the Lane, then he will become an even more impressive signature entirely.
