Marco Silva described Ryan Sessegnon's goal against Tottenham as "emotional" given the difficulties the Fulham player has been through in his career.
After bursting through at Fulham as a 16-year-old, Sessegnon joined Tottenham in 2019 but a series of injuries disrupted his time in north London and he has now returned to Craven Cottage.
"It was emotional," said Silva, about Sessegnon's 88th-minute stunner against Spurs. "The injuries, sometimes that can be hard for the players to deal with.
"He’s in much better shape right now. We all know his quality. The first goal again at Craven Cottage, against Tottenham as well, he did it in a fantastic way, right-footed, something he’s been working on in the training sessions. It was a nice reward for him.
"He’s still very young. He was one of the biggest talents in his position in the country. That was the reason why a club like Tottenham came and spent the money. Sometimes life and football is not as we expected, everyone expected a bright future for him in that moment. He wasn’t fortunate at all in terms of injuries."
