Cisse to return?Former Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse is being heavily linked with a return to the Premiership although his current club Marseille has dismissed any speculation surrounding the player.
L’OM president Pape Diouf confirmed: "He is wanted, that is for sure,"
"I myself have been approached by Manchester City but I turned it down categorically."
He added: "I want to be clear - Djibril Cisse will not leave. He will stay at OM until the end of the season,"
"I have always wanted to rediscover the Djibril that we signed, the efficient Djibril.
"I have never doubted his abilities, his qualities. He got through difficulties last year and I have no doubt that he will get out of them again this season.
"With everything that he has had to endure, read, see and hear, I understand that it piles the pressure on him to leave, having been contacted by an English club that is among the leading teams in their league.
"But when he and myself discussed this, he understood my position - he understood that I will not let him leave and he has no problem with me."
