Bissouma out of Spurs squad after arriving late | OneFootball

Manager Thomas Frank has left midfielder Yves Bissouma out of the Tottenham Hotspur squad ahead of the UEFA Super Cup.

The Europa League winners will face Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday evening but they will be without the midfielder.

"He has been late several times and now this latest time was one too many," the new Spurs boss said while addressing the media before the game.

"With everything, you need to give your players a lot of love but also have demands and there also need to be consequences and this time there was a consequence for that.

"For me, there has been a consequence and that is for this trip. I will follow up on that when I come home. I will park it for now because there is a relatively important game tomorrow."

Bissouma has previously come under criticism from previous manager Ange Postecoglou so will now have to step up to win favour back with Frank.

The 28-year-old played 44 times for the club in all competitions last season, scoring twice.
