Team Talk in England reported on the 10th (Korea time) 'According to a reliable source, Postecoglou is trying to sell a non-horse race' The media explained that Postecoglou decided to actively listen to Bissouma's recruitment proposal from next year, and that trust in Bissouma has fallen significantly.
Bissouma, a former member of Mali's national team, transferred to Tottenham in the summer 2022 transfer market. If the initial transfer fee of £25 million includes an additional option, it will be £35 million. Expectations were high at the time of recruitment.
But Bissouma failed to adapt to Tottenham. It has not been recognized much since its predecessor, Antonio Conte. Although Postecoglou's appointment has been a little more impressive. However, there are still many ups and downs because the form cannot be revived.
Therefore, Postecoglou wants to sell Bissouma at a good price and bring in a new star-turned midfielder. The decisive moment for Postecoglou to defeat Bissou was the home game in the 15th round of the 2024-2025 English Premier League (EPL) against Chelsea at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 9th.
In the game, Bissouma allowed a penalty and played a major role in losing the game 3-4, showing only a passive appearance in defense. This is why Postecoglou and the team's senior leaders decided to sell Bissouma.
In addition, there is a decisive reason for Postecoglou's decision to release Bissouma. There are two things.
One is that Bissouma did not properly perform the role that Postecoglou wanted. Initially, Postecoglou expected Bissou to be the leader of midfielders. In addition, two young talents, Archie Gray and Lucas Beribal, accepted. In the end, Tottenham was determined to increase its power through proper replacement of players.
