Moussa Sissoko
has written an emotional goodbye to Newcastle, but insists joining Tottenham
was necessary.
The Frenchman
joined Tottenham on Deadline Day for a £30 million transfer after Newcastle
were relegated from the EPL.
Sissoko did
not feature for Newcastle in the second tier of the EPL, after registering his
desire to leave.
However, in a
heartfelt goodbye to the club, the 27-year-old paid tribute to the Newcastle
fanbase and expressed his belief that Rafa Benitez will guide the club back
into the Premier League.
According to 360nobs he wrote as follow:
With all my
heart… As you know, a new adventure begins for me.
Despite the difficulties, I
decided to join the Tottenham club.
This choice was a necessity and I needed a
new challenge.
While I know that this decision can make sad or disappointed
Newcastle fans, I want them to know that I will never forget.
I’ve always
played with heart for them and the club. I’ve enjoyed the atmosphere of St.
James’ Park every game.
I’ve liked living in Newcastle and I’ve found a warmth
that contrasted with the cold of the English north.
This heat around the club,
initiated by the fans, has often warmed my heart while I was far from my
friends and my family.
There were good and bad times. Relegation was clearly an
emotional pain for the whole city.
But the heart of this city beats for this
club and I have no doubt it will come back very quickly to the top level. It
deserves it.
This heart I felt it beat, scold, laugh, love and hate. But it is
brave and warm. Personally, my three years at NUFC will remain unforgettable.
I'll never forget it. And it will forever be in my heart and a part of me.
Thank you all !
