Transfer gossip: Spurs again linked with Sessegnon, Blues linked with trio

A round-up of Sunday’s transfer speculation involving the area’s clubs…

Fulham have told Tottenham they want £8m for Ryan Sessegnon, the Sun on Sunday say.

A number of clubs have been linked with the 16-year-old left-back and it is claimed that Tottenham were looking to sign him for £3m.

Spurs remain interested and plan to offer the Whites a player in part exchange, it is claimed.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte apparently wants Juventus striker Mario Mandzukic after missing out on Romelu Lukaku.

After Everton boss Ronald Koeman declared that Lukaku will be staying with the Merseyside club, there is inevitably speculation over which players Chelsea will now target.

The Sunday Mirror claim Croatia international Manzukic, 30, is wanted by the Blues.

Conte has been linked with a host of players this summer

Manzukic joined Juve for around £16m from Atletico Madrid a year ago and would apparently cost around £25m.

And the Sunday Express reckon missing out on Lukaku has prompted Chelsea to make a club record £60m bid for Real Madrid’s Colombia forward James Rodriguez

Meanwhile, after Conte confirmed he wants to bring in a defender, The Sun on Sunday say Chelsea are ready to make a £25m bid for Giorgio Chiellini.

The Juventus centre-back, 32, played under Conte for the Turin club and for Italy, and is apparently top of his wishlist.
