- Leeds United and Braga are also interested in signing the midfielder.

Spanish club Levante is reportedly preparing a significant offer of approximately five million euros for Maccabi Tel Aviv midfielder Sissoko, ahead of the January transfer window. The club has already initiated contact with Sissoko's representatives and is considered the most advanced among interested parties, though the offer has not yet been formally submitted to Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Leeds United is also vying for the player's signature, having monitored him for over a year. They may submit an official bid when the transfer window opens, although reports suggest Sissoko is open to a move to England and potentially prefers Elland Road, Leeds' home ground. Maccabi Tel Aviv's coach, Keni Miller, sought to strengthen the midfield in the summer but was unsuccessful.
Portuguese club Braga is also monitoring the situation and has Sissoko on its list of potential targets. However, Braga has not previously acquired players at such a price point, making their chances in the bidding war seem slim. Sissoko's contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv runs until June 2027, with an option for an additional season. He joined the Israeli club in the summer of 2024, contributing to their recent championship win and remaining a key player this season.
