Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma is furious at his treatment by the Mali FA this week.

Bissouma, who is 27, is very unhappy at being left out of his nation's latest squad.

Bissouma did not play regularly at the African Cup of Nations under coach Eric Chelle either.

The head coach told reporters recently: "Like many players, he deserves to be selected, it's just a choice. In my diamond there are players right now who are slightly safer. That doesn't mean he won't be called again."

Bissouma, who contracted malaria at AFCON, has been a regular at club level all season.

He wants to play more for Mali and will be hoping that he can find his way back into the setup.
