Yves Bissouma wants to join Arsenal in the summer of 2021, according to Football.London.
It has been reported that a close friend of the Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder has said that he would choose Arsenal over any other Premier League club.
The Express reported in March that Arsenal are interested in signing the 24-year-old midfielder from Premier League rivals Brighton.
The report claimed that ‘Bissouma has also been the subject of several lines of enquiry from the Gunners’.
Yves Bissouma Stats
According to WhoScored, Bissouma has made 27 starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League for Brighton so far this season, scoring one goal in the process.
During the 2019-20 campaign, the Mali international midfielder made 15 starts and seven substitute appearances in the Premier League for the Seagulls, scoring one goal in the process, according to WhoScored.
Good singing for Arsenal?
Bissouma is a very good defensive midfielder who would make Arsenal a better team.
Thomas Partey and Granit Xhaka are the two main central midfielders in the current Arsenal team, but Bissouma could be an upgrade on the latter.
Even if Brighton do not get relegated to the Championship at the end of the season, they could find it hard to turn down a good offer for Bissouma.
