Marseille have rejected an approach from Manchester City for striker Djibril Cisse.
The former Liverpool forward has been linked with a return to the Premier League in the January transfer window after failing to secure a regular starting role with the French club this season.
Marseille president Pape Diouf revealed today that City had inquired about the services of Cisse but he had turned them down.
‘He is wanted, that is for sure,’ said Diouf.
‘I myself have been approached by Manchester City (about Cisse) but I turned it down categorically.’
