Cisse furious over Blues move talk

Last updated : 27 June 2002 By Brian Cartlidge
Rumours state that Cisse is set to join Blues in a £4.5 million transfer from French club Paris St Germain now that Senegal's World Cup campaign is over.

He has not ruled out the possibility of a move to St Andrew's but has said that he had not spoken to anyone from the club yet.

Cisse says that he wants to play in the English Premiership, but is upset at reports that the deal is virtually complete.

He told the Birmingham Sunday Mercury “I believe both clubs have come to an agreement but the only person who hasn't been consulted in all of this is me.”

“Paris St Germain have not even asked me if I want to go to Birmingham or not. I have no appointments with Birmingham.

“I'm not saying I won't go, and I am not saying I will go, but I have to be asked about this.

“Some respect needs to be shown to me.”
