Eve Bissouma has been excluded from the Tottenham squad list for shocking reasons.

Tottenham also announced a squad call-up list for Super Cup games. But there was no name for Bissouma on this list. Attention was bound to be focused. The reasons for exclusion were even more shocking. The Athletic said 'Bissouma was excluded from the Super Cup final squad for disciplinary action. Director Thomas Frank told a news conference that Bissouma had been disciplined.
Frank told a pre-Uefa Super Cup press conference that `Bissouma was late many times, and it was too late again. I want to treat the players with love in everything, but there are responsibilities and consequences. This time, the result was followed. I'll talk to you again when I get back", and said that Bissouma was excluded from the squad due to disciplinary action due to frequent tardiness.

Bissouma, who joined Tottenham in 2022, has suffered steadily from ups and downs. Under Antonio Conte, his performance was minimal, and he showed signs of rebounding after Enze Postecoglou was appointed, but it did not last long. Performance issues have been raised since the 2023-2024 season, and in the 2024-2025 season, he was pushed out of competition and only started 16 league games.
The possibility of leaving Tottenham in the transfer market this summer was also discussed, but Bissouma accompanied the Tottenham squad during the pre-season and checked the possibility of a rebound. He also attended Tottenham's event in Korea, and when Son Heung-min announced his separation from Tottenham at a press conference for the event in Korea on the 2nd, Bissouma shed tears during training and regretted his separation from Son Heung-min.
However, it is expected that Bissouma, including the exclusion of this squad, will cause problems as an attitude, and that Bissouma will not be accompanied by the Tottenham squad. Tottenham has already signed João Palinha on a contract that includes a transfer option after loan, so there is no need to worry about the absence of Bissouma. It is difficult to expect Bissouma to rebound from Tottenham with an attitude that does not even keep the time properly.
