Paris St. Germain president Robin Leproux is convinced Arsenal and Chelsea target Stephane Sessegnon would enjoy a "magical season" if he stayed at the club.
Sessegnon, 26, has been linked with a switch to the Premier League duo after he stated his wish to leave the capital club this summer. The midfield schemer has been in impressive form since joining from Le Mans two years ago and has grabbed eight goals in 63 Ligue 1 appearances.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is understood to see the £10 million-rated star as a replacement for Cesc Fabregas, while Carlo Ancelotti wants to add some creativity to his team. With Tottenham Hotspur and Everton also interested, the Benin international is not short of English suitors.
Speaking to RMC radio, however, Leproux was optimistic Sessegnon would spurn a transfer.
"I spoke to Stephane before the holidays," Leproux said.
"He is a great player, he has fantastic qualities and makes fans dream on the field.
"He is capable of a magic season for us and I told him that. We know we can count on him."
