Tottenham have confirmed the signing of midfielder Yves Bissouma from Premier League counterparts Brighton.
The Seagulls were reluctant to lose Bissouma, but with just 12 months left to run on his deal on the south coast, Brighton were forced into cashing in on the Mali international.
"We are delighted to announce the transfer of Yves Bissouma from Brighton and Hove Albion, subject to the granting of a work permit," a statement read on Tottenham's official website.
"The Mali International has agreed a deal that will run until 2026."

✒️ Tottenham have confirmed the signing of Yves Bissouma from Brighton
Bissouma becomes Tottenham's third signing of the summer following the additions of Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster from Inter and Southampton, respectively.
The 25-year-old's arrival from Brighton is expected to see Harry Winks shown the exit at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with the England international now fifth choice in the pecking order for Antonio Conte's side.
Tottenham, meanwhile, are expected to make further additions to the squad this summer, with Djed Spence set to join from Middlesbrough.
