Tottenham launch probe after video emerges of midfielder ‘inhaling laughing gas’
One midfielder is walking a fine line at Tottenham, and with off-field issues resurfacing once again, he may now be closer than ever to an exit under Thomas Frank.
Yves Bissouma is yet to feature for Tottenham Hotspur this season under new manager Thomas Frank, with the Mali international’s last competitive game coming in May last season.
The 29-year-old did not get off to the best of starts with the new boss, who left him out of his UEFA Super Cup squad for disciplinary reasons following repeated lateness to training.
Spurs had tried to sell Bissouma during the summer, but fitness issues put off potential buyers at the time, leaving him to remain in north London.
Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma faces axe after new laughing gas footage
The Malian has less than one month left on his current Tottenham deal, but his recent actions could very much have sealed his fate as a Spurs player.
According to The Sun, Yves Bissouma is facing the axe after he was filmed allegedly ‘inhaling laughing gas’ at a recent party.
This is not the first time the Spurs midfielder will be seen indulging in such activity, as just last year, a video on his Snapchat saw him doing the same, after which he issued an apology.
Tottenham are reported to have confirmed they have launched a probe after footage emerged of the midfielder using a nitrous oxide balloon at a party.
Spurs stance as Bissouma deletes club references
The Tottenham midfielder also looks to be cutting ties with the club, as Bissouma has removed all reference to Spurs from his Instagram account.
A Spurs spokesman said of the new video that they are looking into the events and that it will be dealt with as an internal matter.
Bissouma was approached for comment, but no report of him commenting was relayed. It is illegal to supply the class C drug under tightened laws, with offenders facing up to 14 years behind bars.
The use of the substance can lead to brain disorders, depression, memory loss, incontinence, hallucinations and nerve damage.
The recent footage, which looks to have been filmed in the early hours of November 3, was sent to a woman who was invited to join him at the party in London.
Speaking about the incident, she said: “I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. “Bissouma was openly inhaling from the balloon even though he had been in trouble before for doing this.”
