Spurs have agreed to send Ryan Sessegnon on loan to Hoffenheim this summer, the club has confirmed.
The 20-year-old needed to leave the Tottenham Stadium for more playing time after seeing Spurs bring in more competition for him to contend with.
The young Englishman played just 12 times in all competitions for Spurs last season and isn’t a part of Jose Mourinho plans in the short term.
The Special One is keen to win a trophy for the Lilywhites this season and has an abundance of talent down the left side..
Spurs landed both Sergio Reguilon and Gareth Bale from Real Madrid in this transfer window and they would have played ahead of Sessegnon if he had stayed.
He had several suitors including PSG and Barcelona, Celtic was also keen to land him on loan, but Spurs believe that a move to Hoffenheim will serve him better and they have allowed him to join the German side.
He is expected to feature heavily for the small-town German club in the domestic competitions and the Europa League.
Spurs believe that he will eventually become a top player so they never considered adding the option of a permanent transfer.
