Yohan Cabaye is line for a sensational return to Newcastle – with Paris Saint Germain using the playmaker as bait to land Moussa Sissoko, write Neil Moxley and Alan Oliver in the Sunday People.

PSG are primed to step up their interest in 25-year-old midfielder Sissoko, despite the £20million price tag that the Magpies have slapped on the powerful France international.

Arsenal are also keen on Sissoko but it is PSG who hold the trump card, as they will be willing to trade Cabaye.

The former Toon favourite has not been a hit with the Paris crowd since his move in last year's winter window, and has been relegated to a spot on the bench.

Sissoko was handed a six-and-a-half year deal when he arrived for £4m from Toulouse.

One stumbling block could be wages but Newcastle can overcome that by offering Cabaye a chunk of the cash they receive for Sissoko.

A source told Sunday People Sport: “Sissoko has been awesome for us in recent weeks. But that’s what we expected from him.

“When we watched him for Toulouse, he was heading them out at one end and within a few seconds he was charging into the other box, so we knew he was the man for us.”
