Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly closing in on Fulham’s Ryan Sessegnon.
Tottenham Hotspur are into the Champions League final as well as qualifying for next season’s competition, but they desperately need some new signings this summer.
Spurs haven’t brought in any new blood since January 2018, and Mauricio Pochettino’s squad is in desperate need of some new recruits.
Pochettino will hope for some swift business, as Spurs have become famous for dawdling in the transfer market – and one new signing already appears to be close.
The Sun report that a deal worth around £25million is close to being done for Fulham talent Ryan Sessegnon, with Spurs finally in a position to land the teenager.
The 18-year-old has been linked with Spurs for over two years now, but after suffering relegation back to the Championship with Fulham, a deal now appears to be on the cards.
The left winger, who can also play at left back, hit two goals and six assists this past season, and should be another great young player for Pochettino to develop.
Now, pundit Stan Collymore has taken to Twitter to react, feeling that Sessegnon ‘could fly’ for Spurs in a number of positions, believing the more would be ideal.
Collymore noted that this has been a tough season for Sessegnon, but the situation at Fulham was far from ideal, and thinks the vibrant dressing room at Spurs would be ideal for the teenager.
