Reported Liverpool target Bissouma had a stormer against Leeds United on Saturday afternoon.
The 24-year-old was absolutely everywhere yesterday as Brighton beat Leeds 2-0 at the Amex Stadium.
This was Bissouma’s first appearance since The Sunday World reported on Friday that Liverpool were in talks to sign the £35 million-rated midfielder.
And it looks like some fans of the Anfield club were very impressed by what they saw.
Here’s how some Liverpool supporters reacted to his performance on Twitter:
Liverpool could and probably will need Bissouma this summer – or at least somebody very like him.
That’s because Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain may well reportedly leave Merseyside after struggling majorly for regular football under Jurgen Klopp.
And of course, Georginio Wijnaldum looks certain to leave due to the fact his contract is up next month.
Thiago Alcantara turned 30 last month and Jordan Henderson turns 31 in June. Both will certainly be Liverpool players next season, but it’s time to look to the future and Bissouma would be one hell of an addition.
Curtis Jones is on Merseyside and hopefully for the fans he’ll be there for quite a few years.
But beyond him, Liverpool don’t have a lot of spring chickens in midfield and it’s time for Klopp and sporting director Michael Edwards to change that.
