The Tottenham player has previously apologized for his behavior, but now he has gotten into trouble again.
A Tottenham star could face replacement after being filmed committing a crime that he has previously apologized.
Tottenham got back on the winning track on Saturday, as Thomas Frank led his team to a 2-0 win over his former team Brentford thanks to first-half goals from Richarlison and Xavi Simons.

The result eased some of the pressure on Frank after a difficult period, but the club has been in the headlines for the wrong reasons due to a player who hasn’t played a single minute this season.
According to Sportbible, the club has launched an internal investigation after midfielder Yves Bissouma was filmed inhaling nitrous oxide from a balloon. The footage is said to have been taken at a party that Bissouma attended in London on November 3, and was sent to a female friend whom he invited to join him.
The Malian international has found himself in an identical situation in the past and issued an apology after being suspended in August 2024.
“I want to apologize for these videos,” the 29-year-old said at the time.
“This was a serious misjudgement. I understand how serious this is and the health risks involved.”
“I also take my responsibilities as a footballer and role model very seriously.”

Bissouma inhaled illegal drugs.
With the potential to cause health problems such as brain disorders, depression, memory loss, hallucinations, and nerve damage, the use of nitric oxide was made illegal in the UK in 2023. Now it is a Class C drug, distributing it can lead to criminal injunctions such as jail time.
After the first incident, which led to him being disciplined by his club, Bissouma ended up playing 44 games last season and played a key role in their historic Europa League win against Manchester United.
But his 2025/26 season started in the worst way when he was left out of the squad for the Super Cup final against Paris Saint-Germain for arriving late regularly.
He was also left out of Frank’s Champions League squad, and an ankle injury he suffered on international duty in October has contributed to him not playing at all in the Premier League.
Bissouma was sent to FIFA’s medical centre of excellence in Qatar as part of his rehabilitation process.
He was signed from Brighton for £30 million in 2022, and his contract expires in June, but Tottenham have the option to extend his deal for another year.
