Trabzonspor looking to loan Tottenham out-of-favour midfielder Moussa Sissoko
Trabzonspor appear to have a genuine interest in loaning Tottenham midfielder this summer.
According to the football transfer rumours in Turkish Media (Turkish Football), Trabzonspor are looking to loan Tottenham out-of-favour midfielder Moussa Sissoko.
The France international has joined Tottenham from Newcastle United for a fee in the region of 35 million euros in August 2016. The 27-year-old has a valid contract with Tottenham until June 2021.
Since his arrival from Newcastle United, Sissoko has provided only 4 assists in 34 games for Tottenham in all competitions last season.
Moussa Sissoko has represented France at Under-16, Under-17, Under-18, Under-19 and Under-21 level, winning 46 caps and scoring three goals, before making his senior international debut in October 2009. As a member of France national football team, Moussa Sissoko has won 52 caps and has scored two goals.
Moussa Sissoko is one of the more likely players to be offloaded by Tottenham this summer and the list of suitors in the France international continues to grow.
Ersun Yanal is keen to secure at least one more signing this summer, and Moussa Sissoko could very well be a man under consideration.
The France international is thought to perfectly fit the profile of midfield player Ersun Yanal wants to target in the summer transfer window.
Trabzonspor are in the market for just a handful of statement signings this summer who can improve the first-team.

The central midfielder can also play as a right midfielder, offering Ersun Yanal a different option should he change his formation at Trabzonspor.
According to the report in Turkish Media, Tottenham value the midfielder at 35 million euros. The Spurs are preparing to sell their midfielder should they receive a massive offer for him, but Trabzonspor are only interested in a loan deal.
How strong that interest is and whether Trabzonspor will make a summer move remains to be seen but it is certainly one worth keeping an eye on.
