Daniel Levy and Fabio Paratici praised for beating Arsenal to 'fantastic' Yves Bissouma signing

Tottenham owner Daniel Levy and sporting director Fabio Paratici have been lauded for securing the signing of long-term Arsenal target Yves Bissouma, with the Malian midfielder's transfer announcement expected shortly.

The 25-year-old, who is an Arsenal fan, is the latest player to be snapped up by the Lilywhites, who have started this summer transfer window on fire. Their £25million capture of a player that the Seagulls quoted a fee of around £50m for last summer will join the north Londoners alongside the already signed Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster.

Middlesbrough's Djed Spence could also soon be on his way to the capital as he appears to have given the green light to Tottenham with negotiations expected to speed up in the forthcoming days amid a £20million price demand rumour on the Teesside clubs' behalf.
