Versatile Fulham teenager Ryan Sessegnon is reportedly a £50m summer transfer target for Manchester United.

Manchester United are willing to pay Fulham £50m to sign highly-rated youngster Ryan Sessegnon, according to a report.

The 18-year-old played a massive part in the Cottagers' promotion to the Premier League last season and has been used 23 times in the top flight this term.

Tottenham Hotspur were considered the strong favourites to sign the England Under-21s international last summer, but Fulham were reluctant to sell their marquee asset.

With the South London side heading for an instant return to the Championship, however, The Express reports that Man United could be about to test their resolve.

The Red Devils are said to be monitoring Sessegnon's ongoing contract talks with Fulham, with less than 18 months left to run on his existing deal.

United are keen to bolster down the left and the versatile wideman ticks plenty of boxes, even though he has gone under the radar in his maiden Premier League campaign.

Sessegnon can play left-back, left midfield and on the left of a three-man attack.
