# Tottenham: Spurs interested in Yves Bissouma

**According to the [Daily Star](https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/arsenal-transfer-news-yves-bissouma-24021182), Tottenham are interested in signing Yves Bissouma from fellow Premier League outfit Brighton.**

### **Spurs eye Bissouma**

Spurs are among a number of clubs interested in the 24-year-old, with Arsenal, West Ham and Everton also mentioned as potential suitors.

The Gunners are believed to be confident in getting a deal done for the £15.3m-valued Mali international ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/yves-bissouma/marktwertverlauf/spieler/410425)), with the Seagulls demanding £30m for his signature.

### **Interesting option**

Bissouma has been a key player for Brighton this season, playing in all but two of their 34 Premier League matches to date ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.com/yves-bissouma/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/410425)). Given the interest from other clubs, it is clear he has plenty of talent and could have a big future in the game.

The former Lille man is an all-round midfielder. For example, he has managed more tackles per game ([2.8](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/303096/Show/Yves-Bissouma)) than Tottenham enforcer Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg ([2.6](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/101859/Show/Pierre-Emile-H%C3%B8jbjerg)) this season, while he has also averaged more dribbles per match ([1.5](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/303096/Show/Yves-Bissouma)) than Son Heung-Min ([1.2](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/91909/Show/Son-Heung-Min)).

With him in the middle of the park, Spurs would have a real driving force. If Daniel Levy were able to beat Arsenal to his signature, that would make his signing all the sweeter.
