Graham Roberts slams Tottenham for Jack Clarke, Ryan Sessegnon and Joe Rodon signings

Graham Roberts has slammed Tottenham for the signings of Jack Clarke, Ryan Sessegnon and Joe Rodon.

The trio were signed over a 14 month period between 2019 and 2020 but have all made very little impact in North London.

Their respective careers fittingly sum up Tottenham’s struggles in the transfer window in recent years. Clarke (£10m) and Sessegnon (£25m), were signed in the same year as Tanguy Ndombele and Giovani Lo Celso, have added almost nothing to the cause in the last two-and-a-half years.

Sessegnon has come into the picture under Antonio Conte and made his third Premier League start under the Italian against Wolves on Sunday, even though it lasted less than 30 minutes after he was hooked following Spurs’ horrendous start to the game.

But Clarke has made just four first-team appearances and is already on his fourth loan spell since making the move from Leeds, with no top-flight outings to his name.

Then there’s Rodon, who’s hardly had a look in this season, and hasn’t played a minute in the top-flight for more than five months.

With Rodon costing £11m, Tottenham forked out almost £50m for the trio, who’ve made less than 50 appearances between them in just under three seasons, which appears to have left Roberts frustrated.

He told GIVEMESPORT: “You didn’t need to go out and buy Sessegnon, Rodon and Clarke, you don’t need to.“

Sessegnon was on the back of a decent season with Fulham in the
