Moussa Sissoko completes Tottenham Hotspur move

Moussa Sissoko confirms that he has completed a move from Newcastle United to Tottenham Hotspur on deadline day.

Moussa Sissoko has confirmed that he has joined Tottenham Hotspur from Newcastle United on deadline day.

The 27-year-old looked to be on the verge of a move to Everton after the Toffees became the first team to match the Magpies' asking price of £30m earlier today.

However, the player himself reportedly turned down a switch to Goodison Park in favour of Tottenham, who entered the race in the dying stages of the transfer window.

Spurs are thought to have matched Everton's offer of paying £6m in five separate instalments, with Sissoko preferring a move to White Hart Lane due to the prospect of Champions League football.

Sissoko took to Twitter to confirm that he has signed a five-year deal in North London, although official confirmation is yet to arrive from either club.


Sissoko had previously been linked with the likes of Real Madrid and Arsenal following his performances for France at Euro 2016.
