David Accam was one of the bright spots in an otherwise disappointing 2015 campaign for the Chicago Fire, and now it seems the Ghanaian attacker is attracting interest from some heavy hitters across the Atlantic.
The fleet-footed Accam recently completed a training stint at Stoke City, and multiple reports in his homeland allege that the English Premier League club wants to sign him on a multi-million-dollar transfer.
“Accam moved to England to train with Stoke City in his bid to remain fit. He has also played a low-keyed internal friendly match for the Potters,” reports GhanaSoccernet.com. “This has sparked rumors of a €4m [$4.3 million] offer for the Ghana international.
“The former Helsingborg star however does not qualify for automatic work permit which makes a move even more difficult.”
Africa-based journalist Gary Al-Smith echoed much of the chatter about Accam on Twitter on Wednesday.
Signed as a Designated Player a year ago, Accam scored 10 goals and two assists for the Fire in 24 games (21 starts) in 2015. When contacted by MLSsoccer.com, Fire officials clarified that Accam's time in Stoke was only a training stint and not a trial.
