Tottenham could benefit from Turkish bidding war in race to sell £21m player

A transfer battle is expected to erupt between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce over an experienced Tottenham man in the final days of the transfer window.

With just 10 days left until the window slams shut, Spurs have plenty of work to do, with reports indicating that the Lilywhites want to add three new signings to their squad.

There is also work to be done in offloading players to make space for potential new signings, and one of those who is expected to leave is Yves Bissouma.

It has emerged over recent days that Bissouma would prefer to stay in the Premier League if he is forced out the door by Spurs, but the midfielder is seemingly generating plenty of interest from Turkey.

Turkish giants want to sign Yves Bissouma from Tottenham

It has now been reported by Takvim that Galatasaray have entered the race to sign the Mali international.

The Super Lig side are keen to bolster their options in the middle of the park and are expected to make initial contact over a deal for the Tottenham man soon.

Gala, who also have CSKA Moscow’s Matvey Kislyak on their wishlist, expect their local rivals Fenerbahce to challenge them in the race for Bissouma.

The report claims that Tottenham Hotspur are looking for offers in the region of €25m (£21.6m) for the 28-year-old, even though he has just a year left on his contract.

Bissouma is also on the radar of European giants

It has also been reported that Bissouma is on the wishlist of Juventus, who want to add a new number six to their squad.

However, some sources have suggested that the Bianconeri may be discouraged from signing Bissouma as he would take up a non-EU spot in their squad.

Additionally, it has also been claimed over recent weeks that Everton and West Ham are keeping an eye on the Spurs midfielder’s situation.
