Tottenham make surprise Bissouma contract decision

The midfielder is on the outer of manager Thomas Frank's plans this season and can leave in January.

Fitness and disciplinary problems have engulfed Bissouma this term, with Frank now focusing on other midfield options for the mid- and long-term.

However, despite the rift, The Sun says Spurs could yet trigger a 12-month extension in Bissouma's deal as it runs down this season.

Spurs are ready to make the move in the event a buyer cannot be found next month. The board has little interest in allowing Bissouma to leave for nothing over the summer.
