Cisse Breaks Silence & Promises 100%

Newcastle United striker Papiss Cisse has finally broken his silence on the row which saw him miss the pre-season games in Portugal after refusing to wear the club shirt with sponsor Wonga on it. Cisse, who after extensive talks last week has now agreed to wear the shirt and is expected to feature in tonight's game against St Mirren, has now confirmed his decision.

He said;

I have had some useful discussions with my club, my family and Islamic teachers in the last few weeks. After a huge amount of thought and reflection, I have made the decision to follow my teammates and wear the kit.

Now I think it is important for the team and the fans that we concentrate 100 percent on football. Although I did not go to Portugal on the training camp, I was back here working hard on my fitness and preparing for the start of the new season."
