DONE DEAL: Tottenham sign Fulham wing-back Ryan Sessegnon

Tottenham have clinched the signing of Fulham wing-back Ryan Sessegnon.

Spurs have completed the £25 million signing of left-back Sessegnon from Fulham.

The fee for the 19-year-old could rise to £30m with add-ons, while the defender has signed a five-year deal at the club after undergoing a successful medical on Thursday.

Spurs midfielder Josh Onomah will move in the opposite direction as part of the deal, which was finally struck on Wednesday after months of negotiations.

Sessegnon has been recovering from a hamstring injury during pre-season so won't be available for the opening games of the season after completing his Spurs switch.

Sessesgnon said on his transfer from Fulham: "I think it's the right time for me to come here - an exciting team for me to join."
