Tottenham Hotspur reportedly want to sign Steven Sessegnon in 2020.

According to The Sun, Tottenham Hotspur are still in the hunt for Fulham defender Steven Sessegnon after failing with a summer bid.

Spurs landed Ryan Sessegnon from the Cottagers this summer, finally landing him on deadline day after being linked with him for more than two years.

Having arrived with an injury, Spurs fans are yet to see Sessegnon make his debut for the club, but they may yet see his brother join him in 2020.

It’s claimed that Spurs still want Ryan’s twin Steven, and Fulham fear that Spurs will be back to sign the 19-year-old when the transfer window re-opens in January.

The report states that Spurs offered just £3million for Steven this past summer, which Fulham rejected as they felt it was ‘derisory’.

The right back is featuring prominently for Scott Parker this season, starting four Championship games whilst impressing both defensively and in the final third.

Whilst Ryan plays on the left, Steven plays on the right, and his ability to play at centre back and, most importantly, right back – a position of real concern for Spurs – makes him very appealing.

Spurs have some work to do after their first bid was snubbed, and they’ll surely be keeping tabs on his progress ahead of the January transfer window, when they’ll look to reunite Ryan and Steven in North London.
