Gunners May Have Lost Ground In Attempts To Sign Midfielder
Posted on 11. Sep, 2008 by Milox in Premiership
Arsenal may have lost ground in the race for Ghanaian midfielder Stephen Appiah after West Ham chief Gianluca Nani revealed they are interested in the player.
Appiah, 27, is a free agent having been released from Turkish outfit Fenerbahce and the Gunners, along with the Hammers and Portsmouth are known to be admirers.
“He’s a great player,” Nani told Radio Radio. “He has had some injury problems but I will not say anything else as a matter of privacy.”
Arsene Wenger is still in the market for a central midfield player following the summer departures of Mathieu Flamini and Gilberto and has previously been linked with Appiah in recent seasons.
After being priced out of a move for Liverpool’s Xabi Alonso and Aston Villa’s Gareth Barry, Appiah may prove a cheap, attractive option.
