Tottenham would like to beat rivals to Fulham highly-rated duo.
Tottenham Hotspur are hoping to tie up a quick deal for Fulham sensation Ryan Sessegnon, but they are looking at a double deal by also landing his twin brother Steven, HITC Sport understands.
The Sessegnon brothers – both defenders – are rated very highly, with Ryan already making strides in the Fulham first team – but Steven is not far behind.
Ryan has scored twice in just four appearances this season, and has already racked up 15 appearances for England at various youth levels.
Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United have been strongly linked with 16-year-old Ryan, but Spurs believe they can not only win the battle for his signature, but also snap up his brother too.

Both are already England youth internationals and Fulham are trying hard to keep them, but they have not been hugely successful in hanging onto their products in recent years with the likes of Patrick Roberts, Moussa Dembele and Emerson Hyndman all rejecting the chance to stay at Craven Cottage before moving on.
General View of White Hart Lane
Spurs are hoping to agree terms before January but would be willing to leave the duo at Fulham until the end of the season and possibly even beyond that as they continue to target England’s top young talents after the success of Dele Alli.
