Papiss Cisse earning some Wonga in the casino
Already one of the more colourful figures to grace the English Premier League, Papi s Ci se may have taken a gamble with his Newcastle United career, following the latest incident in his chequered period at the club. A picture has appeared of him apparently , just days after his refusal to don this seasons Newcastle shirt. The Senegalese striker claimed the Wonga loan company sponsorship clashed with his religious convictions. Consequently he dropped out of the Magpies pre-season tour in Portugal on these grounds, to the annoyance of a club more used to dealing with the results of players criminal convictions. He had offered to don a jersey sponsored by a charity instead of the offending one. Now the grainy photograph, which definitely seems to be of Ci se, despite the players cunning attempts to conceal his identity by keeping his hat on, is another headache for Newcastle bo s Alan Pardew Adam Ottavino Jersey . The manager was already under some pre sure ahead of the new season, after Newcastles struggles last time out, and Pardew has been dogged by pre-season rumours of his sacking. There have also been suggestions that he is struggling to communicate with the foreign players in the Newcastle squad, which this incident wont have done much to help. This is probably not as unhelpful as the recent return of David Robertson Jersey Joe Insomnia Kinnear as the Director of Football.Ci se is one of the stars that Pardew is pinning his hopes on for the new season, and he urgently needs to recapture the stunning form he showed in his first season with the Geordies. Now the speculation instead is that he wants to move to a big money club before the transfer window closes, with reports linking him to the Ru sian club Anzhi Makhachkala. It seems likely that the Senegal star would have to repair his tarnished image before getting a move. think perhaps Ci se should have taken a leaf out of the book of another, even more divisive striker, Mario Balotelli. Back in 2011 the then-Manchester City player allegedly gifted 1000 to a homele s man following a similar bout of succe sful gambling at a casino securing some of the few good headlines of his career with the club in the proce s. Of course its not too late for Ci se to pull off a similar act of generosity. Newcastle fans would probably be happy if he just promised to donate a few more goals to their cause this season.
