Moussa Sissoko invites Real Madrid interest

Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko has admitted that it would be a dream to move to one of Manchester United or Real Madrid this summer.

The 26-year-old has recently caught the eye of Los Blancos after he expressed for France at the European championships.

When asked on the impending interest from the European champions, the Frenchman said : “That's flattering. Who would not be flattered by the interest of one of the best clubs in the world, if not the best?

“It's simple when you are young and you start playing football, your dream is to become a professional and play for a club like Real Madrid or Manchester United."

Magpies boss Rafael Benitez is likely to keep hold of Sissoko this month unless a club matches his £35m asking price.
