Newcastle United centre forward Papiss Cisse is set for an exit out of St James’ Park, with several Turkish clubs interested in the Senegal front man.
Cisse rejected a move to Turkish Super League outfit Trabzonspor, but it now suggests that he will be heading to either Galatasaray, or Fenerbahce on a proposed loan deal.
He has been deemed surplus to requirments by Newcastle boss Pardew, and was left out the squad all together in the humiliating Derby defeat on Saturday.
He has hardly featured this season, dropping behind both Loic Remy and Shola Ameobi to lead the front line for the Magpies.
Russian side Ruban Kazan have bit £10 million for the out of favour striker, with the Russian window open for another month or so.
Bundesliga sides Freiburg and Hertha Berlin were in for Cisse in January, and may come back for the Senegal international striker.
Newcasyle boss Pardew is reportedly planning a complete re-haul next summer and Cisse is thought to be at the top of the list of those who could depart.
Other players who could exit the club are Sylvain Marveaux, Gabriel Obertan and Dan Gosling, while loan star Remy’s move is not expected to be made permanent.
