Mali international Yves Bissouma has been left out of the squad for Wednesday's UEFA Super Cup final against Paris Saint-Germain in Udine, a dramatic match that PSG won on penalties.

The player's absence increases doubts

The 28-year-old's absence from this important final comes despite his status as a cornerstone of the English team, even after the arrival of coach Thomas Frank. According to the reliable newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, the player has a good relationship with his new coach.

Juventus were keen on signing Swiss star Granit Xhaka, but after failing to secure the former Arsenal star, the Italian club turned their attention to another North London player, Malian Yves Bissouma. The former Everton player is attracting interest from the Italian giants to strengthen their squad for next season, especially as the team needs reinforcements in the vital position he occupies.
