Yves Bissouma, a midfielder for Tottenham, fell victim to a robbery in Cannes, France, last Sunday. The robbers, pretending to be fans seeking a selfie, managed to steal Bissouma’s Richard Mille luxury watch, worth £260k. They used tear gas and pepper spray to carry out their crime.

The incident occurred in the early hours of Sunday morning, just as Bissouma and his partner were returning to their hotel. The French Police have since launched an investigation to uncover the details of the attack and hopefully apprehend the culprits.

Following the incident, the 27-year-old footballer and his partner have returned to England. As a result, Bissouma is expected to miss Mali’s important FIFA World Cup qualifier match against Ghana in Bamako.
Bissouma transferred to Spurs from Brighton in the summer of 2022 for a sum of £25 million, along with additional payments.
During the last season, he played in 28 matches for the club, contributing to their fifth-place finish in the Premier League and their qualification for the Europa League.
