Teenager Ryan Sessegnon reportedly decides that he would prefer to join Tottenham Hotspur should he leave Fulham at the end of the season.

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly emerged as Ryan Sessegnon's preferred destination should the teenager leave Fulham in the summer.

Sessegnon has established himself as one of the top prospects in English football, with the left-sided player having already scored 19 goals in 61 Championship appearances for the Cottagers.

The 17-year-old has recently said that he always knew that he would sign his first professional deal with Fulham, but that has not stopped many of the Premier League's biggest clubs from showing an interest in the youngster's signature.

Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City have been heavily linked with an approach but according to The Mirror, Sessegnon would like to join Spurs should he leave Craven Cottage.

Boss Mauricio Pochettino has shown in the past that he is willing to invest in and play young English players, and that has allegedly tempted Sessegnon into a move to North London.

Fulham will likely demand in the region of £50m if and when they decide to part ways with Sessegnon.
