Tottenham's main defensive midfielder Ives Bissouma's appearance in the 'North London Derby" has emerged as a question mark. Mali's national team, Bissouma, started in the second Group I match of the 2025 Morocco Africa Cup of Nations qualification against Eswatini on the 10th (Korea time).
Bissouma scored the winning goal seven minutes into the first half to lead Mali to a 1-0 victory. However, he was injured by an opponent's rough tackle in the 20th minute of the second half and was eventually replaced. Britain's `The Sun' reported on the 12th that `Bissouma limped off the ground, and it is unclear whether he will play in the North London derby.'
There was controversy ahead of the opening of this season, but Bissouma is the core of Tottenham's midfield. On the 11th of last month, he released a video of inhaling 'laugh gas balloons' through his SNS and became a hot topic. Tottenham played Harry Kane's last pre-season friendly match against Bayern Munich at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England.
With Tottenham losing 2-3, Bissouma was replaced by Rodrigo Bentancur at half-time after playing 45 minutes in the first half. He posted a video of the problem after the game. He was also seen in a limousine drunk while attending a party.

Bissouma apologized. He "I want to apologize for this video. This was a serious lack of judgment"I know how serious this is and the health risks involved. He also places great importance on his huge responsibility as a soccer player and role model."
However, coach Enze Postecoglou could not let it go. He was suspended for one of his own games, and Bissouma missed the opening match against Leicester City. There was a twist. After returning from the second round against Everton, Bissouma scored the opening goal and laid the groundwork for his team's 4-0 victory.
Tottenham will play Arsenal in the fourth round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, at 10 p.m. on the 15th. It is the first 'North London Derby' this season.
Arsenal have two wins, one draw and Tottenham have one win, one draw and one loss. However, Arsenal's power leakage is even greater. While Declan Rice was absent due to disciplinary action, 외degaard was also injured following Mikel Merino, putting him in crisis.

He collapsed in the 19th minute of the second half when the score was 1-1. Austria Christoph Baumgartner's left-footed tackle gave him his left-footed neck. Oedegaard, who complained of severe pain, shed tears as if he had sensed a major injury.
He shook his head even as he left the stadium with the comfort of his teammate, Manchester City's main gun Elling Holan. Norway won 2-1 with Holan scoring the winning goal in the 35th minute of the second half despite the mess.
Oedegaard was seen on crutches on the same day and on a chartered plane. Ola Sand, the Norwegian team's doctor, told Norway 'VG"In this case of ankle injury, it takes at least three weeks to recover. Anything else is just a bonus. And it could take more than that."
Variables are pouring in ahead of the 'North London Derby'.
