How Tottenahm could still sell Yves Bissouma despite the transfer window closing
Tottenham Hotspur may have failed to offload Yves Bissouma before Monday’s 7 pm transfer deadline, but that does not mean that the midfielder is stuck at Spurs until the January window.
It was widely reported that heading into the final days of the transfer window, Spurs were working hard to find buyers for Bissouma, Brayn Gil, and Manor Solomon.
The Lilywhites were successful in two of those cases, with Bryan Gil sealing a move to Girona in an £8.5m deadline day deal, while Manor Solomon also completed a late loan switch to Villarreal.
However, Tottenham were unsuccessful in their efforts to move on the Mali international after Galatasaray called off the deal to sign Bissouma in the final days of the transfer window.
Yves Bissouma still has options to leave Tottenham
While the transfer window may have been shut for the majority of European countries, it remains open for a few more days or weeks in a few leagues across the continent.
Eredivisie clubs can trade players until midnight today, while Belgian clubs can make transfers until September 8. Additionally, the transfer windows in both Turkey and Greece remain open until September 12.
It is unclear that Galatasaray will return for the Spurs man, but they still have nearly two weeks to land the 28-year-old if they wish to do so.
Why a move to Istanbul is very much on the cards for Bissouma
It was reported that Yves Bissouma’s physical condition ultimately led to Galatasaray calling off the deal with Tottenham, rather than the midfielder rejecting the move.
Thomas Frank said last Friday that Bissouma will not be out of action for too long, which suggests that the injury is not serious.
Spurs will thus be hoping that the former Brighton man can seal a move to Rams Park before September 12, particularly given that he is now down to the final 12 months in his contract.
