Tottenham Hotspur are said to be lining up a £12 million bid for the Fulham defender.
Tottenham Hotspur could secure a brilliant bargain buy, if they snap up Ryan Sessegnon from Fulham for just £12 million.
Tottenham are said to have been tracking Sessegnon for some time, and according to the Sun, Fulham realise they may lose their prized prospect.
Sessegnon has been in wonderful form in the Championship this season, scoring five times in 25 league matches.
And the youngster looks to have all the capabilities required to make a step up to the top level.
For £12 million, Sessegnon also looks to be cheap – in the current market.
A 17-year-old with as much talent as Sessegnon could be worth considerably more than £12 million in the years ahead, and he could be Spurs’ first choice left-back for many seasons.
In comparison to other transfers of a similar nature, Sessegnon also looks to be well priced.
Ademola Lookman, who wasn’t as much of a star as Sessegnon in the Football League, moved to Everton for a similar fee. And Luke Shaw, who did have Premier League experience, cost Manchester United almost three times as much.
Spurs should now make sure they complete a deal for Sessegnon, as his arrival would be an excellent start to their summer business.
