in 2019; however, he has had a tough time earning himself game time. He featured in 12 games last season and only six of them were in the

.

Finding himself down of the pecking order in north London, the England Under-21 international moved to

on a loan deal where he has been given more game time. Sessegnon has made 16 appearances for the Bundesliga side. He has been given a full-back, wing-back, and wide midfielder role this season. He admitted that returning to Tottenham is not his priority at the moment.

“

If [first-team football] is not going to be possible next season or in the future, of course I want to go back to a league or a club to regain that experience, and when the time is right to go back, we will see from there,"

Sessegnon said.

“Of course I would say to any young player: Try a different culture, a different league, a different language and don’t be afraid, because it is a great opportunity. You will come back a different person and a better player.

“The main message [from Spurs boss Jose Mourinho] was ‘just go out and play’, that’s exactly what he told me. 

“He saw it as a good opportunity for me to go out and just play, play, play, bring that experience back and then hopefully I’m ready for when I come back. 

“When I scored my first goal he was in contact to congratulate me. Just here and there he drops me a little message to see how I’m doing, to see where I am with the injury and stuff like that. It was his birthday the other day and I dropped him a little message.”
