Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Yves Bissouma could be on his way to Manchester United. The Malian footballer dreams of playing in the Champions League. According to the Mirror, Bissouma could move to Liverpool or Manchester United.
Meanwhile, Arsenal were heavily linked with Bissouma. But somehow they did not sign the player. Moreover, Liverpool are actively looking for Georginio Wijnaldum’s replacement. Despite Naby Keïta’s injury issues Liverpool have decided to trust the player.
Manchester United board is aware that they have to sign a defensive midfielder. Declan Rice is at the top their list but West Ham are not willing to reduce his valuation below £100 million. Manchester United have recruited heavily this summer so they are likely to have a smaller budget. Manchester United fans have been urging the board to make a move for Yves Bissouma.
Yves Bissouma said that this Summer wasn’t the right time to leave Brighton. But has admitted, “When my time will come, it’s my time”. Moreover, he has revealed his desire to play in the Champions League. Also in a recent interview, Yves Bissouma claimed he’s the best midfielder in the Premier League.
Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjær has been an admirer of Declan Rice. But Declan Rice could not be the player United want as he is turning into a world-class box-to-box midfielder. Bissouma is a proper defensive midfielder with the ability to score wonder goals. United crave a proper player that can provide protection to back four.
What would Bissouma bring at Manchester United?
Bissouma has been a vital player for Brighton over the years. Moreover, he has established himself as one of the best defensive midfielders. He is what exactly United need at the moment. We have seen that he is quick, agile, and strong. If United manage to sign him it’s going to be a very vital signing for them.
