Moussa Sissoko

Moussa Sissoko has reportedly dealt Arsenal a transfer blow - by saying he would rather move to Liverpool than the Emirates.

The Newcastle winger is expected to depart Tyneisde this summer following the Magpies' relegation to the Championship, despite Rafa Benitez's decision to stay on as manager.

Arsenal have been linked with a move for the French flier, but he would prefer a switch to Anfield, according to French publication Foot Mercato.

Borussia Dortmund are also apparently in the race for his signature, with Newcastle holding out for a fee in excess of £20million.
