Appiah: Heading to the Premier League?
Skysports.com understands that a host of clubs are considering a move for Stephen Appiah.
The midfielder is a free agent following his departure from Fenerbahce last month and as such available for transfer.
He has had injury problems in the past but proved his fitness as he played for Ghana against Libya on Friday night.
Ghana lost the match 1-0 but Appiah produced an excellent performance to impress the onlookers.
Representatives from West Ham, Portsmouth and Arsenal were all watching on, while another top European side are also thought to be interested.
27-year-old Appiah recently admitted that it would be 'his dream' to play in the Premier League.
