Arsenal fans spot latest Yves Bissouma transfer hint as Brighton stance made clear

Arsenal supporters have spotted yet another transfer hint regarding Yves Bissouma's future.

football.london understands that the Gunners are keen on signing the Brighton and Mali midfielder this summer, with the club preparing for a huge squad overhaul.

Bissouma has enjoyed another fine season with the Seagulls which has earned him transfer links to Arsenal, as well as Liverpool - who are reportedly eyeing an energetic midfielder to replace the outgoing Gini Wijnaldum.

According to Anfield Central, via the Express, Liverpool chief Michael Edwards set a 'transfer meeting' for the 24-year-old to meet club officials at the back end of last week.

However, we may have just seen a big hint about Bissouma's next destination on Instagram.

Titi Kone - a football freestyler who is followed by Bissouma, as well as Nicolas Pepe and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - commented on the Brighton star's latest post with a crown and love heart emoji.

A fan then replied to the comment, saying: "Arsenal fans will love Bissouma", and Kone then said: "Yesss Inshallah".

Arsenal supporters, reacting to the comment, are becoming very excited about the midfielder potentially moving to the Emirates.

And in another potential boost, Brighton chief executive Paul Barber recently told The Athletic, via the Evening Standard, that the south coast club are ready to sell Bissouma if the right offer comes their way.

"I don't see it as a negative at all," Barber said. "The more the big clubs that are interested in our players, the more we're doing right, so I am delighted with that.

“We know some of our best players aren't going to be with us forever and, if the right offer comes along – and it has to be the right offer – and they want to leave, then they can go.

"If we've got players leaving, then we've got back-up internally, and we can go out into the transfer market.

“We're always looking ahead, we're always trying to scout the best young players and bring them into our squad, or loan them out. It's a really important part of what we do."
