Oct 9 2008

Young Boys's Ivory Coast midfielder the superbly named Yapi Yapo has welcomed interest from Stoke City and West Brom.

The former Nantes player told skysports.com: "I am in good form right now, my ambition has always been to play in the Premier League.

"People tend to say the only league for me is the Spanish league, but I can cut it in the Premier League.

"My technique is second to none. I am a great passer of the ball and, while the England is fast and physical, I can cope.

"It is good to be linked with teams in the Premier League. It is the league to be in."
