Born in Roehampton in May 2000, Steven and his twin brother Ryan joined Fulham, just 3 miles from home, at the age of eight. Both progressed through the club's academy to win England international honours at all levels from under-16 to under-21, with Steven earning a FIFA U17 World Cup winner's medal in India in October 2017. (At this stage, twin Ryan, who later joined Tottenham Hotspur, was a regular in the England under-19 side.)
Sessegnon suffered an unfortunate knee injury whilst playing for England under-16s against Brazil in Florida in December 2015, but battled back to return to the Fulham under-18 side early in the following season. He was awarded his first professional contract at Craven Cottage in the summer of 2017 and made his senior debut in an EFL Cup match that August.
He established himself in Fulham's first team during the pandemic-hit 2019-20 campaign, impressing with his committed performances on the right of defence. With the Cottagers promoted to the Premier League, Sessegnon returned to the Championship on a season-long loan with Bristol City in 2020-21, where he made 18 appearances.
Sessegnon became Steven Schumacher's third signing when he joined the Pilgrims on loan until the end of the 2021-22 season, with the announcement coming just an hour before the end of the January transfer window. His initial appearances were from the bench, but he then made more starts as the back end of the season approached, appearing 10 times in all for the club as the season reached its painful climax with the 5-0 home defeat by MK Dons finally extinguishing any lingering play-off hopes, in a season that started with Ryan Lowe and finished with Steven Schumacher at the helm.
After returning to Fulham, he was loaned to League One rivals Charlton Athletic for the 2022-23 campaign, where he played 38 times and scored once before his release by Fulham at the end of the season, without having added to the 21 appearances he had made for the Craven Cottage club.
In August 2023 he then signed a two-year deal with League One Wigan Athletic.
