Mario Yepes eyes Premier League transfer

Colombia international captain Mario Yepes is hoping for a move to the Premier League before he calls time on his career. The player is currently a free agent and last played for Atalanta in Italy.

Yepes, 38, had an excellent World Cup and was one of the stand out defensive performers of the whole tournament.

Gino Culbertson, the player's representative in England, has told reporters that his client is looking for a transfer to a top Premier League side: "Mario is keen to finish his career in the UK and with his experience and undoubted talent he would be a valuable addition for anyone."
