Ryan Sessegnon has claimed it would be “very good” if Scott Parker was named as Tottenham’s next boss.
Ryan Sessegnon said: “That would be very good. Everyone knows the relationship I have with Scott. He’s a top guy, top man and a top coach. He’s just an all-round great guy. I played with him in his last season I think in professional football and my first. He’s someone that has obviously always believed in me as well. They [Fulham] have got fantastic results against some of the big teams where other teams wouldn’t have thought they would get those type of points. Scott has got them playing the right type of football; that’s what I admire about him. He obviously has a philosophy of play and sticks to it and all the players are buying into that. Recently, it hasn’t been so good for them in terms of results, but I think the performances and effort is still there. I hope they [Fulham] still get out of the situation they are in and stay up, of course. Like you say, it’s a club that is very close to me and I hope that they do it.”
Currently on loan in the Bundesliga with Hoffenheim, Sessegnon will return to Hotspur Way in the summer after a year away in Germany in his bid to play regular first-team football week in, week out. With just 12 Tottenham appearances to his name in his first season in north London, a summer return gives him the chance for a fresh start as he looks to make a real impact at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Ryan Sessegnon added: “In some ways, I haven’t even really got going at Spurs. It’s been stop-start since I’ve been there. I got there [to Spurs] and [Mauricio] Pochettino was there. I just came back from injury and then he got sacked and Mourinho came in and then I got sent on loan. It’s been hectic and stop and start. Like you say, it’s a fresh start for me to go back and show what I can do.”
