Tottenham Hotspur are willing to pay up to £35 million to try to land Fulham’s teenage sensation Ryan Sessegnon in the summer.

But Fulham will put up a fight to keep Sessegnon if they are promoted to the Premier League and already value the 17-year-old at closer to £50m.

Sessegnon scored his 13th goal of the season on Saturday in Fulham’s victory over Championship leaders Wolverhampton Wanderers that boosted their own promotion bid.

In 2018, during which time Fulham have won seven league games, Sessegnon has scored eight times. In the country’s top four divisions, only Sergio Agüero has scored more this year.

Manchester United have shown an interest in Sessegnon, but Tottenham believe they are at the front of the queue for the England Under-19 international.

Spurs are ready to structure a deal worth £35m for Sessegnon, which would currently make him the club’s second most expensive player behind defender Davison Sánchez.
