# Sissoko will wait to decide his future

Newcastle United’s French international midfielder, Moussa Sissoko, has revealed that he will assess his future in the summer rather than this month. Reports in [Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11678/10142612/moussa-sissoko-to-consider-newcastle-future-in-the-summer) suggest he feels a move could jeopardise his potential position in Didier Deschamps’ France squad. Making the squad means even more to Sissoko, with Euro 2016 will be held in his native homeland this summer.

The midfield powerhouse has been linked with Italian side Napoli in recent weeks, making him hot property and a potential option for European qualification contenders. Sissoko has scored 10 goals in 103 appearances on Tyneside, since signing for the Magpies on the 25th of January 2013 from Toulouse. He made 164 appearances for the French side before arriving at Newcastle, becoming one of their more prized assests.

According to [The Express](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/583476/Newcastle-Moussa-Sissoko-Snub-Arsenal-Chelsea-Transfer-News), Sissoko had attracted interest from some of the Premier League’s biggest teams; including the likes of Chelsea and Arsenal.

Sissoko told Telefoot:

> I do not think I will leave Newcastle. The club will not want to let me go. And then the question arises about the timing, a few months before the Euros, I have been called up to the national team despite our results. I get to play every weekend and perform well. Like every player I dream of winning titles and matches in the biggest clubs. I will think about my future after the Euros.

However, Newcastle will be hoping to hold on to the Frenchman, continuing to build the promising squad that they currently have.

Will Moussa Sissoko stay at Newcastle beyond this Summer?
