Wanting to leave Newcastle United, Moussa Sissoko is reportedly the subject of interest from two clubs who boast some of Europe's finest supporters.

According to Lee Ryder of Chronicle Live, Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool are linked with Sissoko but there is still not a single offer on the table from any club.

Sissoko admitted to wanting to leave Newcastle in June, telling Foot Mercato, according to the Press Association: "I gave everything there there for three-and-a-half years. I hope that today (Newcastle) will be smart enough to understand that to continue my development I need to keep playing at the highest level. As I want to stay in the France team I could not stay in the Championship. There will be discussions. I hope they will go in my opinion. I want to leave."

During the interview, Sissoko also spoke in glowing terms about Arsenal and referred to the link between the Gunners and himself as "flattering."

Despite tallying one goal and seven assists while appearing in all but one of Newcastle's Premier League fixtures last season, Sissoko was unable to save the Magpies from relegation.
