The Villarreal CF has shown interest in Yves Bissouma, an international midfielder with Mali, 29 years old, who is currently without a club after ending his contract with Tottenham. The lack of a transfer fee makes the player an opportunity to reinforce the midfield during this summer transfer window.

Villarreal has inquired about Bissouma's conditions, although there is still no formal offer or agreement between the parties. The negotiation will depend on the salary, signing bonus, and the contract duration requested by the player.

Villarreal CF considers a transfer-free operation

Villarreal CF could potentially add Bissouma without having to pay compensation to Tottenham. The English club confirmed his departure on June 10, after both parties reached the end of their contractual relationship.

Bissouma joined Tottenham in the summer of 2022 from Brighton. The London club paid around 30 million euros for a midfielder who already had four seasons of experience in the Premier League.

During his time in London, he played in 111 official matches across all competitions. He was also part of the team that won the Europa League 2024-2025, participating in the final against Manchester United.

His last season was marked by a lack of continuity. The player appeared in 11 matches during the 2025-2026 season, a number impacted by his physical issues and various technical decisions.

Villarreal values his experience to add depth in the defensive midfield position. Bissouma primarily operates in front of the center-backs but can also play a more advanced role in a double pivot.

Yves Bissouma has multiple options on the table

Being a free agent has attracted interest from several clubs. Benfica has been working on a potential signing in recent weeks, while other teams from England and Spain have inquired about his situation.

This competition urges Villarreal to quickly define the terms of their proposal. With no transfer fee involved, the main economic factors will be the salary package, signing bonus, and potential commissions.

Yves Bissouma will turn 30 years old on August 30 and has experience in three European leagues. Before Brighton and Tottenham, he played for Lille, where he started his European football career.

The midfielder has been an international with Mali since 2016. His national team experience includes multiple appearances in the Africa Cup of Nations and over 50 international matches.

The player's arrival would allow the club to add a Premier League-seasoned player without transfer expenses. However, this advantage might lead to higher financial demands since Bissouma is free to negotiate with any club.

The next step will be to see if the interest leads to a contract proposal. Villarreal must present conditions that can convince Yves Bissouma before the player progresses with any other clubs monitoring his situation.
