Tottenham Hotspur are considering switching their attention to Borussia Dortmund winger Christian Pulisic following Fulham’s promotion to the Premier League.

Spurs had been leading the race to sign Ryan Sessegnon, but the 18-year-old could stay at Craven Cottage for at least another season after Fulham’s Championship play-off victory over Aston Villa.

Fulham do not want to lose Sessegnon and it would take an offer of £50million or more to force them into even thinking about a sale.

With that in mind, Tottenham are looking at alternatives and 19-year-old Pulisic is a player admired by manager Mauricio Pochettino and his staff.

The signing of the United States international would also be attractive to chairman Daniel Levy, who is trying hard to exploit the American market by staging NFL games at Tottenham’s new stadium.
