Darren Bent has claimed he is a massive fan of Tottenham target Yves Bissouma. He added that his former side are not messing about under Antonio Conte, and the signings have been great.
Reports earlier today suggested Spurs have agreed a £25 million deal to sign Bissouma from Brighton & Hove Albion. The midfielder is set for a medical this week, and the London side are confident of agreeing personal terms with him.
Bent was quick to tweet his opinion on the transfer soon after the news broke out. He claimed the move is great for Tottenham and he is a massive fan of the possible new signing. He said:
"@SpursOfficial are not messing about under Conte, said for a while I'm a massive fan of yves Bissouma. Great signing for them."
Arsenal were urged to sign Tottenham target
Kevin Campbell was keen to see Yves Bissouma at Arsenal and urged his former side to sign the midfielder from Brighton and Hove Albion. He wanted the Gunners to bolster their midfield and add experience to help Albert Sambi Lokonga develop quickly.
While speaking with Football Insider earlier this season, Campbell claimed he wanted the Gunners to go all out for the Mali midfielder. He believed that signing would help the Gunners in the second half of the 2021/22 season and said:
"Don't mess around, Arsenal. This is a move that has been spoken about for 18 months, and I think we will do it. Just do the deal. Go and get him in. Pay the £40 million. I think Arsenal need two midfielders, though, if I am honest with you."
He added:
"Lokonga is a good young player, but he is not strong enough to be a mainstay in that midfield yet. We need some experience in there. Bissouma is young and has experience. I think they need another one as well though. Bissouma would make us so much stronger for the second half of the season."
While Campbell believed £40 million was the price to pay in January, Tottenham have got him for £15 million cheaper today as the Mali star has just a year left on his current deal.

I think it's high time for Arsenal to change the owner of the club because this kroenke and his son has nothing to offer us. they don't care about the club in as much money is entering their account constantly. we need to flush them out and. get someone who has a better future for us Arsenal fans worldwide.

Spurs are doing a great job right now in the transfer market and United will bring in some surprises sooner otherwise you're right about Chelsea's exclusion...but i smell Tuchel losing trust of his players and his defensive tactics no working well...
If Chelsea bring in good defenders this summer then they can still get their customary 3rd place spot much more easily.

Your exclusion of Chelsea will raise a few eyebrows but Tottenham and Man United are certainly capable of finishing above them if they strengthen well this summer. Man City and Liverpool will definitely occupy the top 2, again.

I keep wondering why arsenal fans are still going to emirate to watch them live…if they can absent for 3-5 matches in emirate I think Kroenke will know they are in pain and he will bring out money for transfer or he will have no choice than to sell the team if he’s not getting money from tickets
I think you are right that should be the next thing to do. People should stop going to the Emirates to go and watch their match that’s all...
