African striker set for Premier League

Sky Sports News are reporting that a Senegalese striker is keen on a move to England and in particular Liverpool. Who is it you say? Demba Ba? Papiss Cisse? No it is another  of the West Africans talented striking options; Moussa Sow.

Sow had in the past been persistently linked to a move to England however that all went cold when he moved to Turkish side Fenerbahce from Lille. Sow's scoring record like those of both Ba and Cisse prior to their moves to England, looks fantastic with him averaging over a goal every two games during his current spell with Fenerbahce and his time with Lille.

Given the success of his countrymen in the Premier Leagu it is no shock to hear that Sow is keen to join in on the fun, in fact the big surprise came when Sow went to Turkey despite heavy links to England. It remains to be seen whether as a result of that decision his chance might have gone, however should he get his wish then the striking charts would have an even more Senegalese feel than they do now.

You might think with such talent the Teranga Lions would be a real force however as we learnt with the Demba's, it is one thing having quality players but it is another getting them to play together and further to that they unfortunately cannot boast a defense and midfield quite nearly as good as their strike force.
