Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with the Fulham gem.

Ryan Sessegnon to Tottenham Hotspur is a rumour that is bound to crop up again this summer.

According to The Evening Standard, the Fulham gem wants to join Tottenham, who have been repeatedly linked with the 18-year-old since 2017.

And Scott Parker has just admitted that the Cottagers are vulnerable to losing his best players like Sessegnon, but expressed his determination to keep him.

Parker, whose Fulham side were relegated from the Premier League, told the club’s official website: “When you’re relegated you’ll always be vulnerable to losing your best players. We will be no different.

“Of course I’d love Ryan Sessegnon to be at the club. Ryan fits into the bracket of a few others we want to keep. It’s going to be a busy summer of rebuilding and us trying to keep hold of players.”

The West London side will only demand £35 million for their prized asset according to The Daily Mail, with Sessegnon, contracted until 2020, admitting this past weekend that he might prefer to remain in England’s top flight.

A report in The Sun claims Tottenham are making progress, with a deal potentially worth £25 million plus add ons.

Spurs reaching the Champions League final might only intensify Sessegnon’s desire to join up with Mauricio Pochettino’s side this summer, but time will tell how it pans out.
