According to a report by Turkish-Football, Fenerbahce are ready to step up their chase of Yves Bissouma ahead of the summer. The Malian midfielder is ready to leave Tottenham as a free agent when the season ends, with the Turkish giants now keen to position themselves as a strong contender for the Premier League star.
Tottenham are likely to take a good look at their squad ahead of the summer and reflect on the season they have had. The North Londoners are in the relegation battle at the moment, and a lot has to be said about their overall performances this season, including many individuals who have not performed to their expected levels.
Spurs are likely to bring in new players as a measure of revamping their ranks, including those in midfield. Tottenham are ready to offload Yves Bissouma, among others, with the Malian midfielder not seen as a key figure at this moment.
Bissouma has barely played this season, featuring in only eight Premier League games, starting five of those. The Malian joined Tottenham in a £25 million deal back in the summer of 2022, and he has performed at a good level for the team since. However, his stocks have fallen since last season, which even saw the club attempting to sell him last summer, only for a recurring injury to prevent a move.
Ahead of the summer, Fenerbahce are positioning themselves as the key contender for the Malian midfielder and are ready to launch an offer to sign him on a Bosman deal. The Turkish giants are also interested in Pape Matar Sarr, who happens to be Bissouma’s teammate in north London, as they angle a midfield revamp of their own ahead of the summer.
Fenerbahce are ready to bring Bissouma in and have him in the midfield triangle, also consisting of N’Golo Kante and Matteo Guendouzi. The addition of the Tottenham flop will bring about the required quality and experience the Malian has in his locker.
Rivals Galatasaray have also been keen on signing Bissouma earlier, but those links have since cooled down, as Fenerbahce look primed to take the front seat in the chase. Any move to Turkiye for Bissouma may depend on the kind of offers he has on the table as he inches closer to his Tottenham exit, with several key clubs expected to chase his signature around the summer.
