Are we going to have any players left next season? Biss, Trossard, Cucu, Sanchez, Lamptey. And if we have the temerity to stand in their way, they'll down tools according to some.

Tottenham Hotspur have agreed a deal worth in the region of £25 million with Brighton & Hove Albion for Yves Bissouma.
Spurs have revived their interest from January in the 25-year-old midfielder who is entering the final 12 months of his contract with Brighton. The Mali international should become Tottenham’s third signing of the summer after the goalkeeper Fraser Forster and the wide player Ivan Perisic joined on free transfers.
It reflects Tottenham’s strategy of looking for the right deals despite the the club’s owners announcing last month a £150 million injection to be put towards transfers this summer.
Tottenham are confident that personal terms will not be an issue and Bissouma should have a medical this week. He had a knee injury earlier this season and suffered an ankle problem last week but neither are expected to derail the deal. Liverpool and Arsenal considered signing him last summer and Aston Villa failed with a bid in January but dropped their interest recently.

If be saving the diesel and not offer to drive him myself for that but1 year left is the key, cash in now and invest, trust in our system and move on.

I would be disappointed with that fee. I thought he was worth more even though only a year left on his contract.

Yes, it's in our interests to leak this so it wouldn't surprise me

Bissouma
Other reports suggest fee demanded (presumably add ons as well) is £30m

Fair price considering his contract. He's been HUGE for us and I wish him well at his next club, he deserves Champions League football.

30 inc add ons is fair
Essentially we’ve had him for nothing
Another great advert for the pathway and probably enough income to kept our core players if a 50/50 to sell presents itself

I don't see how this starts a bidding war. A fee has been agreed, other teams are only going to match that fee. The bidding war will be with personal terms.

Hardly breaking news that we are selling Bissouma. He’s not wanted to sign a new contract and has 1 year left so there you are. Very different for everyone else on the list.

Would prefer a last minute swoop from Monaco but seems done

A fee may have been agreed, but if someone comes in with £35 million, we can still pull out of the deal and sell him to the highest bidder, or whatever suits us best.
If this has been leaked, other teams certainly will be alerted to this. It won't just be Tottenham who will be going in for him.

They won't all be going. Maybe Cucurella or Trossard if the right offer is made. Can't see Lamptey or Sanchez leaving this window

It really shows why we want Enciso for 5 rather than 4 years
