SKY Sports News: The Ivory Coast star has been linked with a move to Tyneside after Kevin Keegan checked on him personally earlier this month. The 25-year-old has now told skysports.com that he would love to make the move to England.
"Kevin Keegan is a dream coach, his team always plays offensive football and playing in England would be a great opportunity," he told skysports.com.
"I know there is some contact between the two clubs and if an agreement is reached, I will go to Newcastle.
"To play with Michael Owen would be great and there is also Obafemi Martins who is a top striker.
"The Premier League is attractive and some of my Ivorian friends are there so I would be in good company."
