Galatasaray eye Papiss Cisse deal

Turkish giants Galatasaray are reportedly monitoring Newcastle United striker Papiss Cisse ahead of the winter transfer window.

The Senegalese international has struggled for sufficient playing time this campaign with manager Steve McClaren favouring the likes of Aleksandar Mitrovic and Ayoze Perez ahead of him in the pecking order.

According to The Mirror, Gala are keeping a close eye on the talented marksman with a view to a January bid for his services.

It is added that the Magpies are open to the Cisse's sale at the right price in the New Year.

Cisse has scored two goals in 10 outings for his side this season.
