Tottenham could receive bid from Aston Villa for out-of-favour midfielder

Aston Villa are plotting a surprise move for a struggling Tottenham man, with Unai Emery being backed to revive the player’s career after his regression at the North London club.

A number of potential exits could be on the cards from Spurs this summer, the most high-profile of which could be Yves Bissouma, who has been in woeful form of late.

The Mali international has been substituted at half-time in each of his last five starts and Ange Postecoglou has admitted that he expects more from Bissouma.
