Tottenham edge closer to offloading £20m star as Roma make contact over a move

Tottenham hopes that their Yves Bissouma problem can be solved by the proposed relocation of Manu Kone from Roma to Inter Milan.

Midfielder KONE is sought by Inter who are willing to pay £ 25 million plus add-ons. Roma keeps full for more. They appreciate the French international midfield closer to £ 45 million, but conversations are open.

The new Roma boss Gian Piero Gasperini gives priority to two new wing players, with Leon Bailey from Aston Villa and Jadon Sancho from Manchester United at the top of the wish list.

However, Bissouma can come forward as a feasible option to connect the void of KONE in the central midfield and intermediaries have placed an approach. Spurs would accept everything at £ 20 million for a player whose contract ends in less than a year and yet there have been no strong bids.

Although his well -documented disciplinary issues can force the figure. Thomas Frank took him out of the team for Super Cup final against Paris Saint-Germain because he was too often too late.

It was the newest in a series of indiscetions. A year ago he was omitted by Ange Postecoglou after he was filmed in breathing in nitrogen oxide from a balloon.

Frank confirmed on Friday that he was willing to continue with the case and that Bissouma was back in the fold and was available for Saturday's Premier League opener against Burnley.

“We have treated the situation internally,” said the new Spurs boss. “There was a situation. I tackled it.

“There was a consequence and he will be in the team. It is being treated. We continue to a big game. '

There has been interest in Fenerbahce Bissouma, where Jose Mourinho is looking for an athletic and creative midfielder who would offer an upgrade on Sofyan Amrabat while looking to chase champions and Arch Rivals Galatasaray in the Turkish super -like.

Bissouma fits perfectly with the bill, but the asking price was too high for Fenerbahce earlier in the summer when Spurs laughed suggestions that they might be able to sell for £ 10 million.

With little more than fourteen days before the transfer market is closed again, there may be room for movement to generate more money for their pursuit of top goals Ebereechi Eze and Savinho, both appreciated by their clubs for £ 67 million.
