Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Yves Bissouma has found himself in hot water after reports emerged of his persistent lateness, prompting a stern warning from manager Thomas Frank. The issue has raised eyebrows just days before Spurs' crucial Super Cup fixture.
Disciplinary Concerns for Bissouma
The Mali international, who joined Tottenham from Brighton in 2022, has allegedly been late for multiple training sessions in recent weeks. Sources close to the club suggest this isn't the first time the 28-year-old has faced such disciplinary concerns.
Frank's Firm Stance
New manager Thomas Frank, who took over the reins at Tottenham this summer, is said to have delivered a clear message to Bissouma about the importance of professionalism. The Danish tactician, known for his no-nonsense approach, has reportedly made it clear that such behaviour won't be tolerated as he looks to implement his philosophy at the club.
Timing Couldn't Be Worse
The disciplinary issues come at a particularly sensitive time for Tottenham, who are preparing for their Super Cup match against European heavyweights. With midfield being a crucial area for Spurs, Bissouma's situation adds unnecessary distraction ahead of the high-profile encounter.
Previous Form and Future Prospects
Bissouma showed glimpses of his quality last season after overcoming early injury problems at Tottenham. However, these latest reports will do little to help his case for regular first-team football under the new management.
Club insiders suggest the matter is being handled internally, with no official comment expected from Tottenham. Fans will be hoping for a swift resolution as the North London club prepares for what could be a defining season under their new manager.
