Some Tottenham Hotspur fans have been taking to social media to share their reaction to reports linking the club with a move for Yves Bissouma.
The Sunday Mirror (29/8; page 66) have claimed that Spurs are keen to land the Brighton midfielder ahead of the transfer window closure on Tuesday.
The report suggests that Moussa Sissoko’s departure to Watford has freed up some space and Spurs want Bissouma to be the player that replaces him as Nuno Espirito Santo is an admirer of the midfielder.
However, it is said the Seagulls have set the 24-year-old’s price tag at £40m, which is understandable given his performances in the Premier League for Graham Potter’s side.
The midfielder is one game away from making 100 appearances in all competitions for Brighton, with his performances now reportedly earning him interest from Spurs.
Some Tottenham fans have jumped on social media to give their view on the potential signing.
Winks plus 25m

Still has 2 years left on his contract. Brighton will probably ask for stupid money seeing that they managed to rinse arsenal for Ben White.

This would be a monster deal but I cant see Brighton letting him leave. I cant see it being less than 50m and this is probably designed to get Liverpool to up their offer.

Get Yves and and we'll win a title for sure. I have always wanted Yves.

Would be an excellent signing, but would be incredibly hard to prise away from Brighton this late, unless they already have a replacement lined up.

Went to the brighton game yesterday and he was the best player on the pitch. Brighton fans absolutely love him so it will be a lot of money though.

Bit late in the window. Why wait until now?

We’ve left it to late in the window to do this deal now, Brighton will never sell him now fs 😩

Bissouma is a brilliant player. Every time you watch a Brighton game, with all due respect, the midfielder stands out like a sore thumb.
He would be a sound signing, especially given the void that Sissoko’s departure and Ndombele’s no-show has left but it is very late in the window. So a deal will be hard to pull off.
