Destiny Udogie has shared that he has been impressed by the ‘style’ of Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Yves Bissouma and how it is ‘different’.
During Tottenham’s pre-season tour of 2023, it could be argued that Yves Bissouma is the man that has been lauded by his teammates the most, that’s on and off the field of play.
Summer signing James Maddison recently claimed that the former Brighton star has surprised him the most in training with his ‘very demanding’ style, with Destiny Udogie now complimenting him on his dress sense, as he told Tottenham’s Diary Room.
The 26-year-old was an Antonio Conte signing after his impressive performances in the colours of Brighton under then-manager, Graham Potter.
But that didn’t translate at Hotspur Way, as he struggled to cement his place in the XI, before his season ended in a pretty poor fashion.
But that was under the stewardship of Conte, with Ange Postecoglou now in the dugout and he seems to have provided Bissouma with a new lease of life to the Mali star.
“I think Bissouma has a good style,” said Udogie. “I like it. He has a good style. I like the way he dresses. It’s different.”
Bissouma can thrive under Postecoglu
There are suggestions that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg will head for the exit door this summer, so it increases Bissouma’s chances of starting the first game of the 23/24 season.
Spurs will travel across London to take on Thomas Frank’s Brentford, with every chance that Bissouma starts in midfield, with James Maddison further forward and one other.
When Rodrigo Bentancur returns from injury, you would imagine the starting middle three will be Maddison-Bissouma-Bentancur.
