Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte has raved about Ryan Sessegnon in Football.London and has said that the youngster is a very reliable player.
Conte has said that Sessegnon, who can operate as a left-back, left wing-back or left-winger, has improved a lot since he has been in charge of Tottenham.
Antonio Conte on Tottenham Hotspur’s Ryan Sessegnon
The Tottenham boss told Football.London about Sessegnon: “About Sess, we are talking about now a young player but a reliable player who I can count on him for games in the Premier League or Champions League, for every game.
“You know very well I try in every game to make the right decision but in that role I am okay because I have Perisic and Sessegnon, two important players.
“He improved a lot and I remember very well since I arrived Sessegnon was another player. Now he is a reliable player and he has great confidence. He is strong physically and improved in his quality and technically.
“We are talking about a really good player, a young player that can become stronger but this is the difference between other young players. We are talking about a player who play many games and is reliable for every game, not only for tomorrow or FA Cup, for every game he is ready.”
Exciting
In our opinion, Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte’s comments on Ryan Sessegnon underline just how highly the former Chelsea and Inter Milan boss rates him.
The 22-year-old has had injury problems during his time at Tottenham, and that has affected his growth and development somewhat.
However, when Sessegnon has been fit and has played, he has been superb and has always done a good job.
Now, Ivan Perisic is the first-choice left wing-back for Tottenham at the moment, but that does not mean that Sessegnon will not get chances in the coming weeks and months.
The English youngster would learn a lot from the the Croatian star, both in training and while watching him in matches.
Sessegnon is only 22, and we think that that the Tottenham youngster could develop into one of the best players in his position in England.
