Newcastle
United midfielder Moussa Sissoko is keen to join Arsenal this summer, according
to SkySports.
Moussa
Sissoko has expressed his desire to play for Arsenal after a departure of his
side Newcastle United from the Premier League in the recent season.
Sissoko
has clearly told Magpies boss Rafa Benitez that he has no plans to play in
the Championship.
Arsenal
have targeted several of players this summer but have not made a midfielder as
a prior target. However, Arsene Wenger can take the full advantage of the
player’s situation and can sign him in a cheap deal.
Sissoko
is currently on international duty with France for the European Championship
which starts in the next few days.
The
holding midfielder has told the media that he want to follow the footsteps of Patrick
Vieira, one of the successful midfielder in Arsenal's history.
Sissoko
told Foot
Mercato that Benitez is a great coach and he wants the Frenchman to
stay but he knows what Sissoko is planning.
Sissoko
has been in great form for the Magpies, he has started more than 110 games
since his move from Toulouse in 2013.
Arsenal
already have several midfielders but still they might take interest in signing
the 26-year-old strong midfielder.
