Sessegnon is expected to light up the Premier League this season
It's not really fair to call Ryan Sessegnon an exciting youngster anymore. The kid, at 18-years-old, is one of the most important cogs of the Fulham system and has already garnered the interest of several Premier League giants.

Sessegnon, like Gareth Bale, started out as a left-back. However, he has now fully grown into the left wing position and is an out-and-out attacker who scores and creates pretty consistently for a player his age.
Sessegnon was quite a revelation at Craven Cottage as he buoyed the team towards promotion and helped seal it with an impressive showing in the playoffs where he assisted a goal that helped them seal victory in the final.

Ryan Sessegnon also became the first player outside the Premier League to be nominated for PFA Young Player of the Season award. Now a part of the u-21 English squad, Sessegnon scored 16 goals and assisted 6 in his break out season with Fulham.
