Ryan Sessegnon: FM2020 Wonderkid Review
Ryan Sessegnon is a very good young English winger who has the potential to be one of the most versatile players in FM2020. 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 the auto generated save he has continued to stay with Spurs although his opportunities have been limited. This has definitely stunted his growth and he will definitely have better numbers under a human manager. However, his market value of £59m indicates that he is still a prized asset and his versatility is highly valued.
Having an average rating of under 7 is definitely underwhelming for the English wonderkid, however, this could be due to the fact that his opportunities have been limited.
