Tottenham are not currently selling Yves Bissouma, but they have been actively trying to offload him in the January 2026 transfer window, and talks are ongoing.
Bissouma’s contract expires in June 2026, and Spurs have an option to extend it by a year if no buyer emerges. The club has been keen to sell him since last summer (and even earlier), largely due to disciplinary issues (including multiple nitrous oxide incidents), limited game time under manager Thomas Frank, injuries, and his low priority in the squad.
Recent developments (as of late January 2026):
Tottenham has given clearance for his sale, even with midfield injuries, as Conor Gallagher has effectively replaced him in certain roles.
Galatasaray have shown strong interest: Their vice president/chairman reportedly flew to London for talks, with proposals around €5m (or a similar low fee) given the short contract remaining. Some
Turkish sources claim the deal is close or advanced.
Other clubs like Nice, Marseille, and possibly others in Europe have been linked, but nothing is confirmed as done.
Manager Thomas Frank recently ruled out further departures in the final days of the window and indicated Bissouma would stay, though this may depend on offers.
Recent performances (post-AFCON and injury return) have shifted some views—he’s played more lately and received praise, reducing urgency to sell immediately, but the club still wants him off the books to avoid losing him for free.
In short, Spurs want to sell him before the window closes (or at least secure a deal), but as of now (January 28, 2026), no transfer has been completed, and he’s still at the club.
