Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly open to offloading Yves Bissouma in the upcoming summer transfer window, according to Givemesport.
The Malian international, who joined Spurs from Brighton & Hove Albion in 2022, has struggled to cement a regular starting spot under Ange Postecoglou, raising speculation over his future at the club.
Bissouma’s role under scrutiny
Despite showing glimpses of his ability, Bissouma has yet to fully establish himself as an indispensable figure in Postecoglou’s midfield setup.
While he has featured in several key matches, inconsistency and tactical preferences have seen him drift in and out of the starting XI.
With Spurs eager to reshape their squad ahead of next season, the 27-year-old midfielder’s departure is increasingly being viewed as a viable option.
His reported £100,000-a-week wages make him one of the club’s higher earners, and moving him on could free up funds to reinvest in new signings.
Bissouma seeking more playing time
At this stage of his career, Bissouma is keen on a more prominent role elsewhere.
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers and the next Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) on the horizon, he is eager to secure consistent playing time to remain in top form for Mali.
The midfielder, known for his ball-winning ability and composure in possession, is expected to attract interest from clubs across Europe, particularly from teams looking for a dynamic presence in midfield.
What next for Spurs and Bissouma?
Tottenham’s transfer strategy under Postecoglou will likely involve midfield reinforcements, making Bissouma’s departure more plausible.
The club could explore loan or permanent transfer options, with potential suitors expected to emerge once the window opens.
As the summer approaches, Spurs will weigh their options carefully, but all indications suggest that Bissouma’s time in North London may be coming to an end.
