Tottenham have joined Crystal Palace, Everton and Inter Milan in the race to sign Moussa Sissoko from Newcastle this month, according to the News Shopper.
The 26-year-old joined Newcastle from Toulouse in January 2013 for just £2.1m and has been a rather hot-and-cold performer in the last three and a half years.
However, a stunning Euro 2016 campaign for Sissoko has put him in the shop window following Newcastle’s relegation to the Championship, with the Toon placing a £35m price tag on him.
Alan Pardew signed Sissoko and Newcastle and would like to bring him to Selhurst Park, but according to Sport.fr, Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund are all interested in signing the Frenchman.
Able to play in central midfield or on the right wing, Sissoko has scored 13 goals and assisting in 27 more in his 170 appearances for Newcastle across all competitions.
It’s believed Tottenham want to sell Nabil Bentaleb in order to fund a move for Sissoko, and Bundesliga side Schalke are leading the chase for the Algerian midfielder.
However, Newcastle are also keen on the player and should they be able to persuade him to drop a division, Bentaleb could be used as part of the deal.
