Moussa Sissoko is hoping for a move to Real Madrid after expressing his desire to leave Newcastle.
Sissoko, 26, saw his stock rise following his performances for France at Euro 2016 and the midfielder has stated he does not want to remain at St James' Park and play in the Championship.
The club are yet to receive what they consider as an acceptable offer for Sissoko and it has been reported that he may even feature against Huddersfield this weekend, although he remains hopeful of a move.
"I hope Real will come for me, I'm still waiting," Sissoko told the BBC World Service.
