With Ryan Sessegnon’s release from Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United has the opportunity to sign him for nothing. After spending five years in north London, Ryan Sessegnon was released by Tottenham, who had paid almost £25 million to sign him from Fulham in the summer of 2019.
West Ham is now in a fantastic position to sign the 24-year-old. Despite his apparent difficulties with Spurs, he might be a great addition to our team—after all, one man’s garbage is another man’s treasure. This summer, new Hammers manager Julen Lopetegui must bolster his team in almost every area.
It appears that the Spaniard intends to bring in at least six players for West Ham this summer, and it will be imperative that the team get someone who can rival Emerson Palmieri and offer cover. Since Sessegnon is an attacking player as well, adding him on a free agent would be like acquiring two players for the price of one. An opportunity like that comes up when a team needs a major makeover of its roster.
It is evident that Ange Postecoglou, the manager of Spurs, has determined that the former Fulham player has no future at the club. This is the ideal moment for West Ham to enter the competition to sign him.
Sességnon is just what we require on the left side. He can play as a left back, left wing-back, or left or right winger because of his abundance of speed and strength.See, the Hammers have two options if he doesn’t perform well at the London Stadium: they can sell him for a profit or just let him go after two or three years. It’s not as if we would have had to pay for him!
Although the 24-year-old free agent is undoubtedly a tremendous talent, Lopetegui and the Hammers’ owners will undoubtedly be concerned about his horrific injury history. Since the 2022–2023 season began, he has missed 439 games due to injury (Transfermarkt).
But now that Tottenham has released Ryan Sessegnon, there is a chance for someone to pull off a major coup by acquiring him. Though there is some danger involved, it is unclear if the West Ham board would be willing to give him the amount of remuneration he would be seeking.
