Tottenham Hotspur offered to send Danny Rose to Fulham as part of a deal to sign Ryan Sessegnon earlier in the summer, but no agreement was reached.
The 18-year-old left-back-cum-left-winger is considered one of the brightest young talents in English football and played a marquee role in helping Fulham return to the Premier League.
Despite his tender years, he has 82 appearances for Fulham under his belt and has attracted the interest of clubs such as Manchester United and Tottenham.
And according to the BBC, Tottenham made a concrete move to land the young star earlier this summer, but couldn’t agree a deal with the newly promoted Premier League outfit.
It has been claimed that Tottenham tabled a bid involving Rose joining Fulham as part of a deal to sign Sessegnon several weeks ago, but two clubs did not reach an agreement.
Spurs have been keen to offload England left-back Rose all summer and unsuccessfully tried swapping him with Fulham for the teenage winger.
There are suggestions that Tottenham could make a big deadline day bid, but Fulham are confident that they won’t be losing their young star this summer.
The Cottagers believe Sessegnon wants to play at least one season of top flight football with the club.
