It’ll be interesting to see whether Arsenal genuinely do want to sign Yves Bissouma during the summer.
The Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder has been linked with a move to Arsenal quite a bit over the past four months.
According to Football London in January, the Gunners would be making a summer swoop for the 24-year-old who wants a move to the Emirates Stadium club.
And in March, The Express reported that Edu has already made contact with the Seagulls over bringing the combative midfielder to North London.
One thing for sure is that Bissouma is certainly playing like a man who wants a big summer move away from Brighton.
He was instrumental in helping his club earn a 0-0 draw away to Chelsea on Tuesday night.
And here’s how some Arsenal fans reacted to his performance on Twitter:
With Granit Xhaka potentially having a future at left-back and Mohamed Elneny probably having no future at all at Arsenal, Mikel Arteta might just need somebody of Bissouma’s profile and quality to fit in alongside Granit Xhaka next term.
But time will tell whether there is genuine interest or just rumour.
