Danny Rose has returned to Tottenham’s pre-season squad for the Audi Cup, but it’s unclear whether his presence will affect the club’s pursuit of Fulham starlet Ryan Sessegnon.
Rose was left out of the squad for the tour of Asia as he was exploring possibilities with other clubs. However, it seems the left-back was unable to secure a transfer and is now back in the first-team picture for this week’s Audi Cup games in Munich.
Spurs had been expected to sign Sessegnon as a long-term replacement for Rose, although Fulham manager Scott Parker has said the Cottagers will “try everything” to keep hold of the teenager.
And now, with Mauricio Pochettino seemingly willing to reintegrate Rose into the squad, perhaps Sessegnon is no longer a priority signing. After all, he is out of contract at the end of next season – Tottenham could wait until then and sign him on a free transfer.
Most Spurs fans would be happy to see Rose stay for another season, and the club would surely be delighted to get Sessegnon for nothing rather than pay Fulham’s reported £25 million asking price this summer.

He fought off Levy and demanded to not be forced out. Good for him. He is a club legend and should leave as one with applause and adulation not through the back door unceremoniously.
“Fought off Levy”? No fan of Levy, but you do remember his newspaper interviews? Priceless.
No it’s the 25 million that’s keeping it from happening. Fulham aren’t letting him go for that unless it’s absolutely stacked with near guaranteed incentives. Going to cost closer to 40 if Tottenham really wants him.
keep danny for a year and sign seg on a free next year.,, luverly juberly..alan…
You just got to laugh at the headline. Didn’t Spurs enquire about Ryan Sessignon last year?
What I don’t understand is Spurs extending Davies contract when it’s clear to everyone outside Wales that Rose is a superior player to Davies. Something is wrong there.
I can only guess that Rose’s interview with the nonce masquerading as a reporter for the Sun and his penchant for opening his big mouth once too often has put certain people’s backs up.
