Tottenham Hotspur have yet to make a signing this summer, but it looks like Mauricio Pochettino's side are finally making moves, six weeks after the window opened.

With Kyle Walker leaving for Manchester City in a £50 million deal, Federico Fazio departing for Roma and Clinton N'Jie leaving to join French side Marseille, the squad looks a little thin.

But it looks like the frustrating wait is over for Spurs fans.

According to French outlet L'Equipe, PSG defender Aurier has agreed personal terms with Spurs, and hours later, another transfer story has emerged.

Reports have suggested that Tottenham have had a £25 million bid rejected for Fulham's 17-year-old wonderkid Ryan Sessegnon, according to The Telegraph

Sessegnon has been linked with numerous clubs in recent months, with Liverpool reportedly expressing an interest, and Pochettino's side have now made a move for the talented teenager.

The left sided player made 30 appearances for Fulham last season, scoring seven goals in the process.

Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic has been careful with Sessegnon's development, giving the youngster most of his first appearances from the substitute's bench.

Given the England U19 international's young years and the position he plays in, Sessegnon has already drawn parallels with a young Gareth Bale, who operated at left-back as a teenager for Southampton and then Spurs, before moving into a more prominent forward role in recent years.

Wayne Rooney still holds the record for the most ever paid for an English teenage footballer, but if Spurs make another bid, Sessegnon could smash that fee.

Do you think he is worth the money?
