Former Fulham and Real Madrid man, Mahamadou Diarra has urged Arsenal to sign Brighton midfielder, Yves Bissouma.
The Gunners will continue rebuilding their team when the transfer window reopens and they have made him one of their top transfer targets.
He has developed into one of the best midfielders in the Premier League this season, having joined the Seagulls from Lille in 2018.
He will certainly play for a top team if he keeps his level of performance with the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City also linked with a move for him.
Arsenal signed Thomas Partey from Atletico Madrid in the last summer transfer window and the Ghanaian has shown glimpses of how good he can be.
He is expected to hit top form in the next campaign and Diarra advises Arsenal to sign Bissouma to partner Partey in their midfield and he believes it would make them a top side in the Premier League again.
He told Mirror Sport: “Yves has shown he’s got the ability to do big things and he’s handled big games really well.
“I have heard Arsenal and other clubs are interested but I think Arsenal should go all out for him.
“He is young, he wants to improve and already knows how to succeed in a big league so I think he will play well in the Arsenal team.”
I would not mind taking a gamble on him. He is probably better than most midfield players we have bar Partey. They could make a decent pairing. We need more mobility, strength and energy in midfield.
Bissouma should be the first piece in the reshaping of our midfield which is where we lack pace and quality to compete with the top sides in the EPL. Partey ,ESR and Willock would be part of a reshaped engine room but the others are expendable as far as I am concerned.
If Liverpool or man city want him then we have no chance of signing him.
It’s the Birthday boy 🥳 I left a message for you on Dan’s predictions!
Thank you very much Sue 😃 oh I will take a look 😄
Hope you’ve had a good day, Kevin 🙂
Thank you Sue 😊 just had a quiet day my partying days have long expired 😀
I’ll be 40 next may I might push the boat out for that one 😆
Absolutely!! 🤘
Bissouma would be great but, there are many reasons he should be wary of coming to Arsenal. He will have far better options than us, with more ambition.
He will be guaranteed a place in our best eleven, which would not be the case with Liverpool nor Man City.Perhaps that might influence him to move to Arsenal .
Disagree and if you are right, he might as well stay at Brighton for regular football, if thats all hes good for. He wont come to Arsenal for regular football, he will go to a team with ambition, if he is ambitious. If he comes to Arsenal for regular football as you put it, thats a worry. He is better than Arsenal and if Arteta stays, i see him joining a bigger club.
You keep hyping a player that has not been tested on big occasion. Same way u guys hyped Partey see him now. Bissouma will jump at any opportunity to join Arsenal. Someone that does not earn up to 40,000 pounds at Brighton.
Bissouma,Camavinga,Partey,Esr.This is the midfield we should be looking at, strength,drive, motivation.i think we could get both Boussima and Camavinga,because both would regularly start for a big club, not guaranteed at the other clubs, choice would be European football or guarantee starts with a high chance of European football next year,plus bigger wages.Arsenal still has pulling power,and they would see the chance of a rebuild.
Sorry to burst your bubble for our Fans on dis!!
While Bissouma is a cool, classy and most importantly, right-footed midfielder, I still feel Maitland-Niles is Better!!
AMN is more Aggressive n also versatile!! He is like a Yaya Toure midfielder..Can pass, shoot, tackle,etc..
However, if my Wish isn’t noticed, Then Bissouma should be it!!
But Xhaka MUST LEAVE!!
Once I see d Swiss Lampost next season, will know Arsenal fc is about!!
We should target these players
1.Bissuoma
2.Buendia
3.Ryan Bertrand (as Tierney back up)
4.A quality Right back.
5.Daka /Edouado to replace lacazete.
6.Go back for Martinez to replace Leno.
Max Allegri as new manager.
And possibly Kronke Out.
