Former Arsenal striker, Kevin Campbell reckons that between £40-50 million would be enough for Arsenal to sign Yves Bissouma.
The midfielder has been turning heads in the Premier League while starring for Brighton in this campaign.
He was in fine form again as the Seagulls played out a goalless draw with Everton yesterday.
He has been linked with a move to Arsenal among other teams and Football London says he would love a move to the Emirates.
Being one of the best players in England in his position, the midfielder will not come cheap and Campbell has now suggested that he would cost the aforementioned fee.
The former Gunners’ star watched as the Ivory Coast-born Malian bossed the game last night and says he is obviously good on the ball, has enough aggression in his game and can go for goal.
“If you get any change out of £40-50 million, you’ve done well,” said Cambell when asked how much Bissouma will cost this summer on Sky Sports as quoted by The Focus.
“He’s that good. He’s young, aggressive, good on the ball, gets you up the pitch. Got good energy. “We’ve seen with the overhead kick he can go for goal.”
Arsenal would face serious competition for his signature and that fee might be a problem for them too, considering their current financial struggles.
No thanks. He’s not worth more than 20-25 mils.
If they relegate, he will be cheaper. If not offer then Eleny or AMN and 15-20M. That should do it.
Sounds good to me
I buy your idea , we can also get zaha by giving palace Maitland or willock with some money….just good business. Please tell edu to bring that daka guy soon he’s cheap to risk the money on
Exchanges never work. Its complex enough to transfer one player, let alone two. Agree £40-£50 mil is way OTT.
Yes agree, 30 to 40 is more like it. But this guy is monster indeed just watch highlights.
He doesn’t have the footballing CV to justify that valuation, so I can only hope you could secure his services for far less, especially in this current economic climate…like that he’s played in both an attacking and deep-lying capacity in recent years, but not at that price
“Considering their financial difficulties”; there is not a club in world football that is not facing financial difficulties.
Yves Bissouma would be an excellent midfield acquisition for Arsenal; however £40-£50 million is this current environment is ridiculous. Brighton & Hove Albion, should they be relegated, will have to sell should Bissouma want to leave.
Bissouma would be an excellent acquisition and form a formidable midfield hub with Partey.Like many other pundits, Campbell seems not to appreciate the financial consequences of the Pandemic but he and others will be proved unrealistic when the next transfer window opens.I very much doubt if Brighton will be relegated and they just might consider a swap plus cash deal with AMN as the trade in.Alternatively, as a team which is short on fire power, Nketiah may be of more interest to them.
Yves Bissouma pairing Partey will be another Viera + G.Silva combo. But will Arsenal buy him, I doubt. Does Arsenal still have ambitions, I doubt. Do we have the vision, I doubt. Arsenal’s now managed by inexperienced, non ambitious shortsighted board members & a pre nursery like coach. Pity.
