Manchester United 'contact Fulham over Ryan Sessegnon swoop'

Manchester United have reportedly made initial contact with Fulham as the Red Devils consider a move for teenager Ryan Sessegnon in this summer's transfer window.

Tottenham Hotspur were believed to lead the race for the England Under-21 international, who contributed two goals and six assists in 35 Premier League appearances for the Cottagers during the 2018-19 campaign.

However, according to Sky Sports News, United have contacted Fulham to discuss a swoop for the teenager, who will turn 19 on Saturday.

Sessegnon scored 15 Championship goals for Fulham during the 2017-18 season before featuring on a regular basis as the capital outfit returned to the top flight of English football.

United are believed to be targeting moves for younger players this summer, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have been strongly linked with the likes of Swansea City's Daniel James and Lyon's Moussa Dembele in recent weeks.
