Some Brighton & Hove Albion fans are worried that reported Arsenal target Yves Bissouma was saying goodbye last night.
Bissouma has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in recent times, and he increased his profile further yesterday, as he helped his side pick up a 3-2 win over Manchester City.
The Mikel Arteta target was at his very best in the heart of Brighton’s midfielder as they topped the champions.
But after the game Bissouma’s actions left some Brighton fans worried that he may be set to depart, amid rumours in Football London that he wants a move to the Emirates Stadium with Arsenal.
Bissouma danced in front of the Brighton fans, who were back in attendance, and took a long time to thank them at full-time.
While the joyous scenes were great to watch, some Brighton fans are concerned that Bissouma’s actions were a goodbye.
If Bissouma does leave Brighton this summer last night will be the final time that he plays in front of their supporters.
Arsenal could be making a crucial signing by bringing the £30 million man (Transfer Window podcast), as they look to bolster their midfield.
Bissouma looks to be an ideal partner for Thomas Partey, given his skill-set – and his arrival would surely make Arsenal much stronger next term.
