Tottenham Hotspur may be interested in signing Ryan Sessegnon from Fulham in the summer transfer window, but the North London outfit could be priced out by Paris Saint-Germain.

According to The Sun, Tottenham are interested in securing the services of Sessegnon this summer, and so are French giants PSG, according to The Express.

The Express has also claimed that Fulham value the 17-year-old winger at £50 million, but that should not be a deterrent for PSG.

PSG are not short of cash, and have shown in recent years that they are ready to pay whatever it takes to get the players they want.

After all, the Ligue 1 powerhouse paid a world-record £200 million to Barcelona for Neymar in the summer of 2017, according to BBC Sport.

Given the potential and calibre of Sessegnon, PSG could well decide to spend big on the Fulham youngster, who was recently named as the Championship Player of the Season.

Also possessing the ability to play as a left-back, the England Under-21 international would be a brilliant signing for any club.

Spurs could do with a player of Sessegnon’s class, but it is hard to see Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy cough up £50m for a 17-year-old, especially as the club are set to move into a new stadium.
