Brighton & Hove Albion looking to sign Lille midfielder Yves Bissouma?

Brighton & Hove Albion have reportedly identified Lille midfielder Yves Bissouma as a potential transfer target.

Chris Hughton has already been active in the market this summer, with four new faces having already linked up with the first-team squad.

According to Sky Sports News, that could become five with Bissouma said to be holding talks ahead of a possible switch to the Amex Stadium.

In May, both Tottenham Hotspur and Everton were credited with an interest in the 21-year-old, as were Fulham before they completed the signing of Jean Michael Seri.

Last season, Bissouma netted twice in 24 appearances for Lille in Ligue 1, while 15 caps have already been earned playing for Mali.
