ISL 2017: 5 defenders who could join the league in the January transfer window

#4 Sebastien Bassong

Sebastien Bassong

The French defender started his youth career at the Clairefontaine Academy and signed his first professional contract with FC Metz in 2005 where he spent three years. He has played in England ever since and his first club was Newcastle United, where he made 30 appearances.

The 31-year-old then played for North London club Tottenham Hotspur between 2009 and 2012, making 45 appearances and scoring 2 goals. Bassong was then transferred to Norwich City at the end of the 2012 season and spent five years with the Canaries, making 105 appearances.

Clearly, Bassong is one of the most experienced free agents in the market at the moment and ISL clubs will surely be keeping an eye out for him.
