Former Portsmouth attacker Aruna Dindane has set his sights on a return to the Premier League.
The Ivorian, who currently plays his football in Qatar, is out of contract at the end of the season, a fact that has reportedly caught attention of Southampton, West Brom and Swansea.
Despite being 32-years-of-age, Dindane believes that he is still good enough for the English top flight and has made finding a club his goal:
“I am a free agent at the end of the season,” he is quoted by Sky Sports.
“I have contacts to return to the French Ligue 1, but I want to play in the Premier League again.
“I liked it at Portsmouth. It was a difficult time for the club when I was there, but I managed to score 10 goals despite missing a lot of games. Now I want to play there again.”
He also revealed that negotiations surrounding his next move are underway, and that he has options should his dream move fail to materialise:
“There are some contacts with clubs. My agent is working on things.
