Moussa Sissoko reiterates desire to leave Newcastle United

Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko reiterates his desire to leave the club this summer, despite manager Rafael Benitez insisting that he is not for sale.

Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko has reiterated his desire to leave the club this summer.

The 26-year-old is thought to be in high demand following his performances for France at Euro 2016, with the Magpies understood to have placed a £35m price tag on his head.

Earlier today Newcastle manager Rafael Benitez insisted that Sissoko is not for sale, but the player himself is hoping that he can secure a move away from the Championship outfit as soon as possible.

"For me, it changes nothing. The interested clubs will know how to find common ground. I hope that it will be as early as possible," he told L'Equipe.

Sissoko joined Newcastle from Toulouse in 2013 and has gone on to make 133 appearances for the club, scoring 12 goals.
