I Am Delighted To Be Back In England- Momo Sissoko

 

Momo Sissoko is delighted to be back in England and hopes he can do enough to win a permanent contract with West Bromwich Albion. The former Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain midfielder is on trial with West Brom following a stint with Chinese Super League club Shanghai Shenhua and played for the Baggies in Saturday's 1-0 friendly win over Indian side Delhi Dynamos.

Sissoko joined fellow triallist Marouane Chamakh for the fixture as both players were watched by West Brom boss Tony Pulis, who will sit down with Sissoko at the end of the week to discuss his future.
He said “I feel good. I was really happy to play for 60 minutes at The Hawthorns and I am confident I can do well here. It's been a long time since I left England. I'll be here with West Brom this week and we'll see what happens after that. The manager has told me just to come and enjoy it and then we'll sit down and talk about my future. But I'm really happy to back with a club in one of the best league's in the world and I hope I can stay here.”

Sissoko became something of a cult figure during his two-and-a-half year spell with Liverpool and admits he would relish the opportunity of playing again at Anfield in the future. Sissoko was signed by then-Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez from Valencia in 2005 and the Mali international is confident his former manager can secure Newcastle promotion from the Sky Bet Championship at the first attempt.
