Germans in for Appiah

Bayern Munich and Schalke are both reportedly interested in Stephen Appiah. Arsenal and Portsmouth are both also interested in the Ghanaian captain.

"There are two clubs in Germany who have made contact," he explained. "My heart still hopes to play in the Premier League, but the German league is also quality.

"There are players such as (Franck) Ribery who you want to play with, or against.

"But it will all be sorted this week."
