Boss set to bid for Paris star
Tottenham Hotspur, 16:57, June 27, 2010 ,
Tottenham are believed to be planning an £8m move for Paris St Germain midfielder Stephane Sessegnon.
The Mirror claim the 26-year-old is desperate to leave the French club and has been linked with a number of European sides including Everton.
The Merseysiders were initially thought to be the front runners for the Benin international, but it now appears that Harry Redknapp has stolen a march on their rivals to clinch his signature.
Tom Huddlestone and Wilson Palacios are Spurs' first choice pairing in the middle of the park but with Jermaine Jenas and Jamie O'Hara both expected to leave this summer, Redknapp knows he needs to bring in reinforcements and Sessegnon fits the bill.
