Manchester United 'to bid £40m for Ryan Sessegnon'

Versatile Fulham ace Ryan Sessegnon is reportedly a £40m target for Manchester United, who are keen to strengthen down the left this summer.

Manchester United are the latest heavyweight side to have shown an interest in Fulham youngster Ryan Sessegnon, according to a report.

The 17-year-old has already been touted as a target for the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain after playing a part in 19 Championship goals this term.

Sessegnon is said to have been watched up close by United in his last three outings, including in the 2-2 draw with Queens Park Rangers at the weekend when claiming another assist.

Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho is a big fan of the versatile left-sided player, comfortable at full-back or on the wing, and The Sun suggests that he has been given the backing of club chiefs to table a £40m offer in the summer.

England Under-17s World Cup winner Sessegnon is an alternative to Danny Rose, with United keen to strengthen in that position due to Luke Shaw's uncertain future.
