Liverpool have emerged as favourites in the race to sign Ryan Sessegnon.

According to a report in Get West London the Fulham teenager has indicated an interest in moving to Anfield.

The 16-year-old has burst into the first team at Fulham this season but has still to sign a professional contract.

The Craven Cottage outfit are resigned to losing the left-back but such is his importance to their promotion chase.

Fulham would only receive a token development fee for the 16-year-old with Spurs, Chelsea and Everton all strongly linked with Sessegnon.

Jurgen Klopp has told his scouting network to lower the age profile of their targets with Sessegnon a ready made first team prospect.

The 16-year-old featured in the Fulham side in the first half of the season and has been a regular since the turn of the year with his growing confidence highlighted by scoring twice in the 3-1 win away to Newcastle.
