However, the Wearsiders have revealed they will not be making the move permanent during the close season, while Cisse's parent club are willing to listen to offers for the 27-year-old.
And Cisse, who has scored nine times in 37 outings for France, says he would welcome an approach from Spurs for his services - the club who he scored debut goals for both Liverpool and Sunderland against.
"It is a really good team and a really good stadium and good atmosphere," he told Sky Sports News.
"But at the moment it is only talk. When I have more news, I'll let you know.
"I have heard a lot of good things about him [Harry Redknapp]. It would be good.
"The only choice I have now is Marseille. So at the moment I am a Marseille player. I hope that I am going to find a club in England."
