# Tottenham Hotspur: Paul Robinson thrilled by big Ryan Sessegnon contract update

**[Sky Sports pundit](https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/12532622/paul-robinson-frank-lampard-exactly-what-dele-alli-needs) Paul Robinson has been left thrilled by a big Ryan Sessegnon contract update out of [Tottenham Hotspur.](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-transfer-rumours/)**

### The Lowdown: Lilywhites open talks…

According to [recent reports,](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-tottenham-open-ryan-sessegnon-contract-talks-amid-huge-reveal/) Spurs have opened talks to agree fresh terms for the electric left-wing-back following his impressive [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) campaign in parts under manager Antonio Conte.

A Lilywhites ‘source’, speaking to [Football Insider,](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-tottenham-open-ryan-sessegnon-contract-talks-amid-huge-reveal/) claims that discussions are underway over a new deal for Sessegnon who has finally been starting to justify his £25m price tag from Fulham.

Conte has apparently made it clear to Tottenham hierarchy that Sessegnon can be a huge Premier League star in future with Robinson now sharing his elated reaction to the big development.

### The Latest: Robinson reacts…

Calling the 21-year-old’s career so far ‘amazing’, Robinson says that attempting to tie Sessegnon down with a new contract is definitely the right move by Spurs.

He explained to [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-idol-amazed-by-ryan-sessegnon-after-huge-update-people-forget/):

*“People forget how young he is.* *The career he has had at his age is amazing.*

*“For Spurs to tie him down to a long contract now is the right thing to do.*

*“He has been a bit-part player this season because of the injuries. But I think there is potential there for him. Conte likes to play with wing-backs which suits Sessegnon’s game.*

*“I think he could become a mainstay in the side.”*

### The Verdict: Correct call…

The homegrown ace has enjoyed[scintillating performances](https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/antonio-conte-impressed-harry-winks-202711802.html) under Conte and we believe he can only get better and better, contrary to what [other pundits have suggested](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/tottenham-hotspur-spurs-insider-tears-into-ryan-sessegnon-after-contract-update/).

Sessegnon’s[injury record](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ryan-sessegnon/verletzungen/spieler/392775) will be a concern for Spurs but, if that aspect of his game can be steadily phased out, the Englishman may well go on to become a revelation.

Attracting [praise from elsewhere](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-insider-blown-away-by-amazing-sessegnon-after-one-of-the-best-performances-ive-seen/) for his showings over 2021/2022, the former Fulham sensation’s age and sky high potential indicates he can continue to grow at Hotspur Way.
