He returned to Fulham, his former team, in the transfer market this summer. Sessegnon made its debut in the 2024-2025 season on the 28th (Korea time). In the second round of the Carabao Cup (League Cup) against Birmingham City in League 1 (third division), he started at left fullback and played full time.
I've come a long way. Sessegnon, a Fulham youth native, made his professional debut in the 2016-2017 season. Recognized as a left full-back, he moved from Fulham to Tottenham in August 2019.
The transfer fee was 25 million pounds (about 44 billion won). Expectations were high, but he played 57 games for Tottenham, scoring only three goals and four assists. The last journey was painful.
Sessegnon left with a left hamstring injury in the 2022-2023 season and underwent surgery in the preseason ahead of last season. He returned in the third round of the FA Cup against Burnley on 6 January this year. He played as a substitute in the second half and played for only seven minutes.
But it was not the end of the pain. He played 37 minutes in the Under-21 team's game on January 17 ahead of his English Premier League (EPL) appearance. But the hamstring injury came again.
This time, it was on the right, not the left. He was finally ruled out for the season. Sessegnon's contract with Tottenham ended after last season. Tottenham can exercise the option of a one-year extension, but gave up and was released as an FA (free agent) with no transfer fee.
Fulham advanced to the third round with a 2-0 win over Birmingham City. Sessegnon had a special feeling.
After the game, he said on his social media, "'I don't feel better than making my second debut for this club. 'Winning away and going into the next round' 'It's been tough being on the sideline for the past year, but tonight it reminded me why. It's really special to wear this uniform. I would like to express my great gratitude to all those who came on the expedition.
Is it Dong-Aid-ryeon. Tottenham's old teammates also cheered for Sessegnon's post. Son Heung-min's best friends Sergio Reguilon and Jed Spence, who were in fullback position, added 'Heart Emoticon'.
Spence has succeeded in staying at Tottenham, while Reguilon is leaving Tottenham soon. Reguilon is also considered to go to Turkiye Besiktas after Manchester United and Barcelona, but it is still in the fog. The closing of the summer transfer market is imminent.
