Chairman anticipating English interest in Kenyan forward

Auxerre chairman Gerard Bourguoin has indicated that he expects interest from England in striker Dennis Oliech. Auxerre were relegated from Ligue 1 last season and need to raise cash by selling their most valuable assets. Oliech falls into that category having scored 31 international goals for Kenya over a 10 year career. The 27-year-old former Nantes man nearly joined Turkish club Kasimpasa earlier this summer but the deal fell through. And Bourguoin expects the player to move on soon as he is attracting interest from numerous clubs. "Some Ligue 1 teams are following him and English sides should show an interest again," Bourguoin told L'Equipe.
