Arsenal 'could be priced out of move for Yves Bissouma'

Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Brighton & Hove Albion's Yves Bissouma this summer but could ultimately be priced out of a move for the central midfielder.

The 24-year-old has been in impressive form for the Seagulls during the 2020-21 campaign, and a number of clubs, including Manchester City, Manchester United and Liverpool, have been linked with his services.

Arsenal - currently ninth in the Premier League table - are also said to be keen on a deal for the Mali international, who has scored twice in 36 appearances for Graham Potter's side during the current season.

However, according to football.london, the North London club's restricted budget this summer could make it difficult for them to meet Brighton's asking price.

A recent report claimed that Man City were considering a £30m offer for Bissouma, who still has more than two years left to run on his contract at the Amex.

The Gunners are allegedly preparing to sign five new players during this summer's transfer window, with head coach Mikel Arteta set to be given funds to overhaul the squad.
