# Liverpool: Fans want to sign Yves Bissouma

**A number of Liverpool fans have been calling for the Reds to sign Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma following another impressive performance from him.**

Jurgen Klopp may be expected to be in the market for new players this summer, adding fresh blood to his squad after a disappointing season. Defensive reinforcements look to be at the [top of the agenda](https://theathletic.com/2482047/2021/03/29/liverpool-finalising-deal-to-sign-ibrahima-konate-from-rb-leipzig/?source=emp_shared_article), but additions in midfield shouldn’t be ruled out either.

With Gini Wijnaldum’s future still [up in the air](https://talksport.com/football/852926/liverpool-transfer-news-georginio-wijnaldum-contract-barcelona/#:~:text=However%2C%20the%20Sunday%20Times%20says,as%20president%20of%20the%20club.&text=Wijnaldum%20is%20understood%20to%20have,head%20coach%20since%20last%20August.), not to mention James Milner now being 35 and [question marks over Naby Keita’s worth](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/naby-keitas-liverpool-future-might-20337923), it could be that Klopp eyes up a new face in that area.

Bissouma has been [linked (ESPN)](https://www.espn.co.uk/football/soccer-transfers/story/4267544/liverpool-track-yves-bissouma-as-wijnaldum-replacement-sources) with a move to Liverpool as a Wijnaldum replacement, as he continues to shine in the middle of the park for Brighton this season.

He was excellent in the Seagulls’ 0-0 draw at home to Everton on Monday night, taking home the [Man of the Match](https://www.skysports.com/football/brighton-and-hove-albion-vs-everton/report/429137) award in the process and earning praise from Jamie Carragher in the form of being called “a top-quality player”.

### Liverpool fans want to sign Bissouma

These Liverpool supporters took to Twitter to talk up the idea of the 24-year-old heading to Anfield this summer and called for the club’s FSG ownership to try and land the ‘[brilliant footballer](https://twitter.com/Lunga_WeeeSiba/status/1381797595157307397?s=20)‘.
