Since 2023, possession of nitrous oxide for recreational use has been a criminal offense in the United Kingdom, carrying a potential two-year prison sentence.
Ange Postecoglou stated that while the door remains open for Bissouma’s return, he must understand the broader impact of his actions and work hard to regain trust.
Yves Bissouma will definitely learn from his actions and will exhibit responsible behavior off the pitch.
