Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko has claimed that he is 'living the dream' at the Premier League club.
The France international joined the Magpies in January from Toulouse on a six-and-a-half-year deal.
"One of the reasons I came to Newcastle was to play against the big clubs like Chelsea and [Manchester] City," Sissoko told the Daily Star.
"I've always thought the Premier League is the best in the world and nothing I have experienced so far has made me change my mind.
"Newcastle have helped fulfil my dreams. That is why every time I go out there I give my best shot to keep the dream alive."
Sissoko has scored three goals in 11 appearances for Newcastle since his January move.
