Fulham director delivers transfer blow to Tottenham over winger
Highly rated Fulham teenager Ryan Sessegnon is not going anywhere, vice-chairman and director of football operations Tony Khan has said.
The west Londoners have not held back in their preparations for life back in the Premier League, making a number of eye-catching acquisitions.
Fulham will also be keeping hold of prize asset Sessegnon – who has been linked with Tottenham in recent days – with the club’s general manager and sporting director Khan ending speculation about the 18-year-old’s future ahead of Thursday’s deadline.
“We’re not selling @ryansessegnon,” he wrote on Twitter. “We’ve never considered it!
“I couldn’t sit back and read these false rumours anymore, had to say something.
“Ryan’s key to this @fulhamfc squad; he’s one of the top young talents worldwide and in our plans for @premierleague success. Come on Fulham!”
