There seems to be a general view that he is trying to engineer a move, so if that's right, which club would it be? Also why? He generally seemed happy enough other than he could have done with better service on the pitch.

Papiss Cisse is set to move to Russia after branding the club’s Wonga shirt sponsorship was ‘immoral’.

 

Russian club Rubin Kazan are ­leading the chase for the Newcastle striker, who refused to go on the club’s pre-season tour to Portugal.

 

And Cisse’s imminent departure has prompted Toon boss Alan Pardew to launched a £15million-plus raid for French strikers Bafetimbi Gomis and Andre-Pierre Gignac.

 

Lyon star Gomis, 27, is also an Aston Villa target, but the chance to join the ­Geordies’ French legion is said to be his ‘preferred move’. With the striker in the final year of his contract, ­Newcastle are looking to pay a cut-price fee of around £5m.

 

They are likely to have to fork out at least twice that for Gignac, 27, but he is reluctant to leave Marseille, so Pardew is also considering Villa’s ­Darren Bent, QPR’s Loic Remy and Benfica’s £10m-rated Paraguay frontman Oscar­ Cardozo. Gomis is the top target, though, and Pardew said: “The Lyon president has come out and said we’re involved with Gomis – and we are. Bafetimbi is a player we think could do very well for us.’’

 

Meanwhile Cisse’s agent Madou Diene supports the player’s stance in refusing to wear the shirt and has told CNN: “He feels that it is immoral.”

 

The bitter row has come to a head after Cisse was forced to train on his own as he would not wear the Wonga shirt or training kit.

 

The PFA and lawyers were called in this week to try and resolve the stand-off with Cisse, a Muslim, insisting promoting a pay-day loan service is against his religion and principles.

 

Senegal striker Cisse also believes being forced to wear a shirt which goes against his religious ­beliefs may break the terms of his contract.

 

Rubin Kazan, Anzhi ­Makhachkala, Borussia Dortmund and several French clubs are keen.

Yeah Cisse, just switch clubs.... that's the perfect solution to such problem. There's no chance that your new one will involve themselves in some unislamic business sponsorships. :thup:

 

Or alternatively, you can fuck off to Dubai or something.

Bidding war.

 

I've always liked Cisse as a person and a player - would hate to see him go. But this whole saga is ridiculous, it needs to end soon either way.

 

It really is.

 

Him moving to Russia however. He'll have another encounter with morale if he digs into what money is paying his wages.

And the insane amounts of racism, which is clearly more moralistic than a loan company.

He would massively regret going hto any of those clubs except Dortmund.

 

I'd be surprised if any Russian club goes out of their way to allocate separate facilities for prayer rooms and the like. We went out of our way to accommodate Cisse's religious sensibilities so if he goes to Russia it's obviously for the money. Pretty low to use religion as a smokescreen to earn a bigger pot.

Really? Finding a room for prayer is an enormous task, is it? :lol:  I've seen much smaller businesses than NUFC making the provision without any problem.

That would surely be the first time in the history of religion?  :huff:

The photo of him in Aspers is getting retweeted like crazy on twitter, how long before one of the London rags has that plastered on their front page.

 

They'd be taking a hell of a risk. It barely looks like him.

 

 

Nor does it matter a jot. Even though I'm personally suspicious of his stance, he can still be a 'bad muslim' and draw a line at Wonga.

That's my picture so I hope it's not printed. My mate text me this morning asking for me to send it to him, he puts it on Facebook and the next thing some mackem at work comes up to is and says "You seen the Cisse picture, it's on our forum".

Are you 100% sure that was him?

 

Aye, it was the night before we played Bruges away. I was talking to him for a bit about why he wasn't playing over there etc. Shame the picture quality isn't a bit better like.
