Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Yves Bissouma would be happy to join Arsenal this month, Football London report.

Bissouma is a fan of the Gunners and a potential move to the Emirates Stadium is one that he is apparently open to.

Whether Arsenal will make a bid for the Brighton man any time soon remains to be seen, but he is said to be on Mikel Arteta’s radar and a player under their consideration.

Bissouma has impressed at Brighton this term, with his steely performances in their midfield making him a key member of Graham Potter’s side.

Indeed, former Arsenal player Kevin Campbell actually singled him out as a player he would like Mikel Arteta to sign on Amazon Prime recently.

“Bissouma I really like him,” he said.

“Arsenal could do with a player like him. Tomas Party needs a partner in the midfield with energy and he would fit the bill perfectly.”

At the moment Brighton are said to value Bissouma at around £25 million (But Football Club), which may make any transfer this month unlikely.

Arsenal seem to be looking to add a number 10 this summer, which suggests that Bissouma may be a target for the summer rather than in the immediate future.
