Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on Steven Sessegnon.

Tottenham Hotspur signed Ryan Sessegnon from Fulham on deadline day last month – and may not be done raiding the Cottagers.

Sessegnon finally completed his move to North London after more than two years of speculation, though he’s yet to make his debut through injury.

The January transfer window is still some time away, but Spurs may already be eyeing up targets for then, which would be encouraging given their slow start to previous transfer windows.

Now, The Sun report that Spurs are keen on Sessegnon’s twin brother Steven, who is also playing for Championship side Fulham after coming up through the ranks there.

Ryan may have received most of the hype in recent times, but Steven is making a name for himself too with some impressive displays at right back.

The 19-year-old has shown real promise under Scott Parker this season, starting four Championship games whilst showing his ability defensively and going forward.

Spurs are now thought to be targeting a 2020 move for Sessegnon, having failed with a £3million bid over the summer, which Fulham felt was ‘derisory’.

Spurs fans are reacting on Twitter to the rumours, suggesting that Steven could be even better than Ryan, but some would rather have Nice’s Youcef Atal or Norwich City’s Max Aarons as their new right back.

Fulham fans have also had their say, telling Spurs to leave them alone after a lengthy pursuit of Ryan Sessegnon, believing that Steven is worth £20million – or possibly even more.
