Mauricio Pochettino's men are desperate to offload the £30m flop, and despite the deal being a disaster it's still expected there will be plenty of suitors.

Spurs' move for the Frenchman came somewhat as a surprise given their astute spending, and many have since deemed the signing unnecessary. Sissoko started just eight Premier League games and recently stated that the season was the worst in his career so far.

Sissoko's performances have become widely known for being inconsistent and erratic, with the midfielder looking like a potential star one minute to proving completely invisible the next. With numbers packed in the Spurs midfield and new players being sought after, there is simply no future for Sissoko in North London.

Pochettino would like to recoup some of the £30m they spent on Sissoko last summer, but at the same time understand the player is seen as damaged goods and a huge risk. Sissoko on his day can be a powerful midfield threat, boasting power, speed and excellent dribbling ability.

These assets can't be ignored and staying in the Premier League remains a strong option, as does a return to France.
