Table of Contents
Sunderland loan striker Djibril Cissé has made it clear that his future lies in the Premier League and not back in his homeland with parent club Marseille.
The 27-year-old striker is currently on a season-long loan at North East, with the agreement is set to expire in the summer.
The Frenchman admits he would be open to penning a full-time deal at the Stadium of Light having enjoyed his time at the club this year, but accepts that he must be patient.
He told Sky Sports News: "To be honest I would prefer to stay in the Premier League. If it is going to be Sunderland, I don't know at the moment.
"We don't know if we are going to stay up, but I think we will.
"But then it is down to the board to make a decision. I am waiting for a transfer or talks.
"No disrespect to Marseille or the public, because I have a good relationship with them and I still have a lot of friends there, but I think my heart is in England and in the Premier League."
