Ryan Sessegnon is an English Football Manager 2021 wonderkid who plays as a winger for Hoffenheim on loan from Tottenham Hotspurs. 

Sessegnon is regarded as one of the most versatile players in English football and can play in multiple positions on the left side of the pitch. Sessegnon made his professional senior debut for Fulham when he was just 16 years and made an immediate impact and became the first player born in the 2000s to score a professional league goal. 

Sessegnon helped Fulham achieve promotion in his second season itself with 15 goals and several assists and went on to win several personal accolades. This prompted a move to Tottenham which did not quite go as planned for the youngster with him struggling to break into the first team. 

However, he joined Hoffenheim on loan in 2020 and has been performing admirably for the German club even winning the club’s player of the month in November 2020.

He is also yet to represent England at the senior level but has played in all junior levels.

Sessegnon is a technically gifted winger who is extremely fast and agile. His versatility is his biggest positive, and he has played in several positions on the left side of the pitch.

Ryan Sessegnon: FM2021 Wonderkid Review

Ryan Sessegnon is a very good young English winger who has the potential to be one of the most versatile players in FM2021. He has some of the best physical stats and is supremely fit. He has well rounded technical and mental stats making him a very able performer and an asset to any side.

In our auto generated FM21 save, Sessegnon has had a torrid time. Despite playing for some of the world's biggest clubs, like, Spurs, Man City and Liverpool, he has remained more of a fringe player throughout the 10 years, and opportunities have been few and far between.

His versatility has worked against him as there has been no positional consistency in all the clubs he has played for and he has been put in only to fill gaps. This has undoubtedly stagnated his growth, and he is nowhere near where he should be as a player in 2030. 

His average ratings have been rather underwhelming for the majority of the autosave, and he has largely been disappointing for all his clubs. Despite the shortfalls, Sessegnon is valued at a respectable £54m in 2030, which shows that he is not a player without potential and if handled correctly he can be an asset to any team.
