Prolific £20m Striker – “I Love Redknapp, My Dream Is To Play In The Premier League”

CSKA Moscow striker Seydou Doumbia is reportedly keen on a move to Tottenham making no secret of his desire to play in the Premier League.

Reports in recent weeks have linked the 23-year-old with a move to White Hart Lane and the Ivorian international has made no secret of his desire to move to England. He also took the time to praise Spurs boss Harry Redknapp, claiming all African players admire him.

“I am very interested in playing in the English league. Harry Redknapp is a coach African players love, so who knows?,” he told Sky Sports News.

“It is only paper talk at the moment. I want to make a name for myself in the Russian league and in the Champions League as well, the rest will come once I am playing very well.

“My dream is to play in the Premier League, everyone knows that.”

Manchester City have also been credited with an interest in the striker, who has scored 23 goals in 37 league games since joining CSKA in 2010 and is rated at around £20m.
