Tottenham Hotspur will hope to return to winning ways when they face West Ham United on Saturday.
Thomas Frank’s side won their first two matches of the new Premier League season, but their strong start came to an end as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Bournemouth prior to the international break.
The Lilywhites have since added forward Randal Kolo Muani to Frank’s squad, and the Frenchman could make his debut against the Hammers on Saturday.
In the meantime, one of Frank’s midfielders appears to be on his way out of the club.
As per Football Insider, midfielder Yves Bissouma is set to leave Tottenham after falling out with manager Frank.
The report claims that the Mali international is likely to leave North London after falling out of favour since Frank’s arrival from Brentford.

New signing Joao Palhinha has made a strong impression in the early days of his Tottenham career, and is seemingly ahead of Bissouma in the pecking order of midfielders in Frank’s squad.
Bissouma – who was left out of Spurs’ squad for the UEFA Super Cup against Paris Saint-Germain last month after repeatedly arriving late to training – is said to have not made the best impression on his new manager, who is happy to allow him to leave.
Both Everton and West Ham considered moves for Bissouma, 29, towards the end of the recent transfer window, although a move never materialised.
The report suggests that clubs in the Saudi Arabian Pro League and Turkish Super Lig could be interested in Bissouma, with the transfer window still open in both countries.
Bissouma’s current contract with Tottenham is set to expire at the end of the current campaign, but the North London outfit could opt to cash in on him this summer.
