    Sochaux have insisted that they will not be selling forward Modibo Maiga on transfer deadline day.

    Newcastle had been hoping to land the 23-year-old, who had previously gone on strike to try and force through a move to the North East.

    Sochaux, who earlier this month threatened to report Newcastle to Fifa, confirmed that they were considering a bid but the French club insisted that they would only sell if they had a replacement.

    They wanted Leeds United's Max Gradel but he has opted for their Ligue 1 rivals St Etienne and that means Sochaux are not planning on letting Maiga leave.

    "If we had found a successor, he would have gone," Sochaux chairman Alexander Lacombe said, admitting he could instead leave in January.

    "If we find a replacement in December then, yes he could leave in the winter."

    Lacombe admitted they failed to get Gradel, saying: "On the one hand it would have been a disadvantage as he is due to play in the African Cup of Nations.

    "But it is up to Leeds, they are the selling club."

    Who now?

    I want Cisse, but don't rule out Maiga. There's a long way to go yet!
