What happened. Former Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma is on the verge of joining Ajax on an initial deal until the end of the season, with the option of a further 12 months. The 30-year-old, out of contract since his release from Spurs in June, is in Amsterdam finalising the move.

He made 11 Premier League appearances in his final Spurs season.
Thomas Frank left him out of the 2025 Uefa Super Cup squad over persistent lateness.
