Moussa Sissoko: Arsenal the club of my heart

Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko has fuelled speculation over his future by saying Arsenal are the club of his heart.

After being linked with a move away from St James’ Park this January, Sissoko posted on Twitter: “I’m a professional player and focused on my team Newcastle United.”

However, in an interview with French television channel TF1, he added: “The transfer market is open, so things can happen any day. I hope I’ll leave for a bigger club one day, but I don’t know when. England is my priority. If (Arsene) Wenger calls, I’ll have a man-to-man discussion with him and then we’ll see. Arsenal has always been the club of my heart.”
