Fulham are interested in signing Joe Bryan from Bristol City, which the Mirror reports would allow Ryan Sessegnon to leave the club.

The newly promoted side join fellow Premier League outfit Burnley in showing interest in Bryan, according to Bristol Live, with the left-back only having a year left to run on his current contract.

Last summer the 24-year-old was valued at £10m by Robins owner Steve Lansdown although it is currently unknown how much the Championship team would want to allow the defender to leave Ashton Gate.

Fresh hope for Spurs

This could have a knock on effect that may please Tottenham Hotspur, who as the Evening Standard reported last month have a long held interest in Sessegnon.

The 18-year-old, who was named Championship player of the season for 2017/18, is valued at around £50m and Mauricio Pochettino is understood to be a big fan.

The Cottagers had hoped that their promotion to England’s top flight would see Sessegnon stay in West London for at least one more year, but this latest development could see the teenager leave for Tottenham sooner than expected.
