Â
West Ham United and Everton could see their hope boosted as Galatasaray are concerned about Yves Bissouma’s potential physical issues, which might see a deal for the Tottenham Hotspur star collapsing.Â
Â
Spurs signed the Mali international from Brighton & Hove Albion in the summer of 2022 and he has featured in 100 games for them so far in his career.Â
Â
Bissouma has fallen out of favour under new Tottenham boss Thomas Frank and they are looking to offload him in the ongoing transfer window.Â
Â
Â
It has been suggested that Bissouma wanted to stay in England to acquire British citizenship, with both Everton and West Ham, who are in the market for midfielders, monitoring his situation.
Â
However, Tottenham struck a loan deal with Galatasaray for Bissouma and the Turkish club were quick to agree personal terms with the midfielder.
Â
Â
The move is yet to be completed, as Galatasaray have reservations regarding Bissouma’s ‘potential physical issues’, according to Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri.Â
Â
Â
Galatasaray want a midfielder who will be available immediately and a deal might collapse between Spurs and the Turkish giants.Â

Â
Bissouma’s current situation might boost hopes for West Ham and Everton to land him and both of them have been monitoring him since early this month.Â
Â
Â
West Ham are desperate to bring in reinforcements after a horrible start to the campaign and a defensive midfielder is high on their list.Â
Â
Â
They have seen Edson Alvarez depart for Turkey and Guido Rodriguez is being chased by La Liga outfits Real Betis and Espanyol.Â
Â
West Ham are closing on Soungoutou Magassa, but Eintracht Frankfurt have been trying to hijack it.
Â
Everton, on the other hand have seen their bid for Thomas Soucek, who David Moyes has worked with during his time with the Hammers, being rejected by West Ham.
Â
Now if a deal collapses between Galatasaray and Spurs, West Ham and Everton could see it as an opportunity to pounce to agree a deal for Bissouma, who has featured in 191 Premier League games so far in his career.Â
