Liverpool & West Ham Set To Miss Out On Ivory Coast Star

Ivory Coast striker Wilfried Bony could spurn interest from West Ham and Liverpool and move to Italy, according to his agent.

The 24-year-old is hot property at the moment having bagged 36 league goals for Dutch side Twente since the start of last season.

He has been heavily linked with several Russian clubs this month, but he has his admirers in England, with West Ham and Liverpool believed to be chasing his signature.

However, his agent Francis Kacou has dampened talk of him moving to the Premier League and says he wants to play in Italy instead.

"I have received several offers from clubs in England and Russia, but the boy is more excited about playing in Italy," Kacou told Voetbal International.

Bony, who is under contract until June 2015, is the subject of firm interest from 2010 European champions Inter Milan.
