Kuffour Receives English Offers

Ghana international, Sammy Osei Kuffour could be playing in the Barclays Premiership this season after revealing that he has offers to play in England. Kuffour is available on a free transfer after he left Ajax at the end of the season when they decided not to extend his stay, following a January move from Roma.

The 32-year-old defender now has a host of offers coming in with rumours suggesting Stoke and Newcastle could be the Premier League clubs keen on him.

Italian outfit Bologna have offered him a one-year deal, but there is more strong interest from the Middle East and Germany in the former Bayern Munich stopper.

"I am a free agent and I have many contacts, even in the Premier League there are two teams after me," he told skysports.com.

"There are also a couple in the Bundesliga, a league I know well. "But we will see, Bologna are a good team so we will wait and see."
