da heads bet: As reported by The Sun, Manchester United are plotting a major move to secure the future of Fulham talent Ryan Sessegnon this summer.
What’s the story?
da dobrowin: With Luke Shaw still failing to prove to Jose Mourinho he can star at left-back this season and no other reliable natural choice to play in the position, it’s an area that will surely be a key priority for the Red Devils in the upcoming transfer window.
One player that’s showing potential to be able to play in that area for a big club is Fulham’s Ryan Sessegnon.
The Sun report that the Old Trafford side are plotting a £40m move for the player this summer after glowing reports from scouting missions to watch the player in action in the English Championship.
The paper say clubs like Tottenham are also interested, but can Man United convince the player his future lies in the North West?

How much potential does he have?
At just 17 years of age, the left-sided player is showing significant quality already. Perhaps the most impressive aspect of his game has been his consistency, proving to be a consistently reliable threat for Fulham, something young players often struggle with.
Played in a variety of defensive and attacking positions on the left flank this season, the teenage sensation has netted an impressive 14 goals this term, also creating five assists.
With better coaching and surrounded by better players at United, he could take his game to a new level, especially considering he is still a few years away from his 20th birthday and still effectively learning his trade.
He appears destined to make his move to a top six club in the English Premier League in the near future and Manchester United shouldn’t delay making the significant investment in his future.
