Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko has admitted that he wants to leave Newcastle United for "a big club", adding that he would appreciate a move to Arsenal.
The 25-year-old midfielder, who moved to Tyneside from Toulouse in 2013, has arguably been one of Newcastle's best players so far this season.
Sissoko is quoted as saying by The Shields Gazette: "My dream is to go to a big club. Arsenal has always been the club of my heart.
"The transfer window is open. I know that I could leave at any moment, but I am not thinking about it. If [Arsene Wenger] calls, I will have a man to man discussion with him, and then we will see what happens."
Sissoko hinted two days ago that he would remain at St James' Park for the foreseeable future, calling on his Twitter followers 'not to listen to rumours'.
