Tottenham’s Dominic Solanke reacts to Yves Bissouma amid exit rumours
Yves Bissouma’s future at Tottenham is uncertain and his latest message has created a reaction among his team mates.
It was exclusively revealed by Football Insider that Spurs will listen to offers on Bissouma this summer and that Serie A side Juventus were interested in a deal.
Bissouma joined the North London club from Premier League rivals Brighton in 2022 in a £25million deal.
His future at the club will now be decided by new manager Thomas Frank who is interested in signing Aston Villa midfielder Jacob Ramsey and has already moved to secure Mohammed Kudus from West Ham.
Bissouma ‘back to business’ despite speculation
Despite his future potentially not being at Spurs, Bissouma has reported back to pre-season training.
Bissouma shared pictures of him training on Instagram with the caption: “Back to business,” with a white love heart emoji, which was liked by many of his team mates including striker Dominic Solanke.
Spurs will embark on a tour of Asia before there Premier League season gets underway at home to newly promoted Burnley next month.
Bissouma part of defensive reset at Spurs
Football Insider Verdict
Bissouma could be one of the major departures in this window for Spurs, alongside defender Cristian Romero who is linked with a move to Atletico Madrid.
With big arrivals like Kudus, Frank must balance the books by letting some stars leave the club.
In lining up the younger and more dynamic Ramsey, Bissouma would face increase competition for places next season.

Frank wanted to reunite with Christian Norgaard before the defensive midfielder joined Arsenal, suggesting the Dane wants to add depth to the defensive holding role.
A refresh of Spurs’ entire defensive structure is perhaps needed after Ange Postecoglou’s spell at the club, which highlighted the defensive frailties of the team on more than one occasion.
In their run to winning the Europa League, Spurs showed their defensive capabilities, but in the Premier League team’s seemed to score past them with ease.
Spurs conceded 65 goals in 38 Premier League matches, which is a cause of concern for Frank that needs to be addressed.
Right-back Kyle Walker-Peters could join on a free transfer after leaving Southampton, whilst Frank has already signed 20-year-old Japanese defender Kota Takai.
