Bid for Newcastle midfielder played down by the club

News broke earlier today that German side Hamburg have tabled a £9.5m bid for French midfielder Moussa Sissoko but Newcastle has not heard anything as reported by The Chronicle.

Sissoko, who is currently on international duty with France at Euro 2016 has made it clear that he wants to leave the club after the club were relegated to the Championship and went as far as describing his preferred club Arsenal as a “beautiful” club.

Newcastle have recently admitted the have had enquiries about players but it’s understood Sissoko is not one of them as Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez looks to hold on to as many players as possible as the look for an instant return to the Premier League.

If the reported £9.5m bid is true and Newcastle are happy with the offer, Hamburg won’t be in European competition next season and as well we all know, Moussa wants European football.

Happy to see the back of Sissoko? Is £9.5m a good offer? Let us know on Twitter and Facebook.
