From France: Manchester United considering shock move for £35m Arsenal target

It seems like Moussa Sissoko is the player in demand in at the moment. He is almost certain to leave Newcastle United this summer and several top Premier League clubs are vying for his signature.

Sissoko has had a poor 2015/16 domestic season with Newcastle but has made a strong impression again in Euro 2016 with France. Initially, he was in the first team plans of Didier Deschamps but forced his way into the starting XI from knockout rounds and was terrific in the final against Portugal.

Rafa Benitez, the Magpies manager, wants him to stay at the club but highly unlikely he would want to play in the Championships next season.
