TOTTENHAM outcast Moussa Sissoko is reportedly at the centre of a transfer tussle between several clubs in the Middle East.
The 32-year old has teams from Qatar and UAE, including Al-Nasr who previously signed ex-Premier League star Yohan Cabaye from Crystal Palace in 2019, vying for his signature.
That’s according to Get French Football News, who also claim that the Frenchman has no desire to make the switch to the sizzling hot region.
The midfielder, who has made 202 Tottenham appearances and five goals since joining the club in 2016, plans to stay at the club and fight for his future, GFFN go on to say.
But his attempt may prove to be futile as Spurs boss Nuno Espirito Santo doesn’t see Sissoko in his future plans.
Despite making 25 starts for the North London outfit last season, new boss Santo hasn’t given Sissoko any game time so far this term.
Reports claim that Spurs are keen to get the £80,000-a-week star off of their books.
The Frenchman has two years left on his contract and has attracted interest from Fenerbahce in the past.

That interest appears to have cooled but the North Londoners are still looking to move him on, according to The Athletic.
And Napoli were also said to be keen on Sissoko in July.
Despite his contract running until 2023, a departure has been on the cards for some time.
Back in February, he told beIN Sports: “I don’t know whether I will stay here at Tottenham. My contract expires in 2023.
“I could tell you ‘yes,’ but we know that everything can happen very quickly in football.”
