EPL: Tottenham hit with injury setback ahead of Arsenal clash.

Tottenham are concerned about Yves Bissouma’s fitness after he sustained an injury during international duty, ahead of Sunday’s crucial North London Derby against Arsenal.

Bissouma scored the winning goal for Mali in their 2026 World Cup qualifier against Eswatini on Tuesday but was forced off in the 65th minute following a tough challenge. His availability for the derby is now uncertain.

Arsenal, meanwhile, are dealing with their own midfield issues. Captain Martin Odegaard and new signing Mikel Merino are sidelined due to injuries, while Declan Rice is suspended following a controversial red card against Brighton.

For Spurs, Richarlison is confirmed to miss the derby, with Micky van de Ven and Dominic Solanke also doubtful.
