Ryan Sessegnon wants Spurs move and tells Fulham he will not renew contract
• 19-year-old winger has one year left on his deal
• PSG and Manchester United also interested in him

Ryan Sessegnon has told Fulham he will not sign a new contract with them – to replace the one that expires next summer – and the 19-year-old winger has set his heart on a move to Tottenham.

Sessegnon, who will be involved for England at the European under-21 Championship in Italy and San Marino this month, has been chased by a host of top clubs, including Paris St-Germain and Manchester United. He comes from an Ivorian family and speaks French, meaning that a move to PSG would hold a certain appeal.

But Sessegnon has made it clear that he wants to join Spurs, who have tracked him for the past few years, as he believes he would thrive under Mauricio Pochettino. The Spurs manager has an excellent track record for developing young English talent. Pochettino would like a deal for Sessegnon to be completed by 8 July, which is when his players will report for pre-season training.

Fulham have mentioned a fee of £45m for a player who, despite his youth, has already made over 100 league appearances for them – including 35 in the Premier League over this past season, when they were relegated. Spurs, though, are not inclined to pay more than £25m and they know that Fulham would face the disastrous prospect of losing Sessegnon for only training costs if they did not do business now.

Feels good to be on the right side of the coin in one of these situations for once.

£25m seems like a fair price considering his contract is expiring. I still expect this one to be our first summer signing, although I was hoping we'd have had it all but wrapped up by now.

I love it when people say this and then say we should still get £80 million for Eriksen under the same exact circumstances...

Depends how much weight you put on Eriksen saying he will sign a new deal if RM/Barca doesn't work out. If you take him at his word, and I would suggest the carefully worded statement he put out backs that up, then we do have the power to push for circa £80m. Especially when another top PL player with a year left just went to them in a deal that should go well over £100m inc addons this week. Hazard was even more committed at jumping ship to Real and they still got a great deal for him.

Sessegnon has clearly said he will not sign the contract, and they could lose him abroad for £500k next summer.
