Everton and Burnley to miss out on free agent Stephane Sessegnon with Montpellier ‘close’ to deal - Reports

Former West Brom forward Stephane Sessegnon is close to joining Montpellier amid links with both Burnley and Everton.

The Benin international has been without a club since leaving the Hawthorns earlier this year but it has been reported that he could stay in the Premier League with other English clubs interested in landing him.

However now sources in France have revealed that a return across the Channel could be on the cards for the former Paris Saint-Germain and Le Mans man.

Mercato365 has suggested that Sessegnon travelled to Montpellier this week to discuss a possible deal with the Ligue 1 side.
