Stephane Sessognon: Midfielder's contract to expire

West Brom have confirmed Stephane Sessegnon will not be offered a new contract and will leave the club alongside Victor Anichebe.

However, Albion remain in talks with James Morrison about extending his stay at The Hawthorns.

Midfielder Sessegnon, who will turn 32 in the coming weeks, made 92 appearances for the Baggies, scoring eight goals, since arriving at the club from Sunderland in 2013.

Anichebe announced on Twitter earlier this week that he would be leaving. The 28-year-old striker played 63 times for the Baggies and found the net nine times after joining the club during the same transfer window as Sessegnon.

Head coach Tony Pulis told the club’s official website: “The two lads worked really hard for me and were as good as gold. Everybody at the club wishes them all the best in their future careers.”

Morrison’s contract is set to expire. He has been with West Brom for nine years and made over 275 appearances for the club.
