ESPN – LONDON, A host of Premier League clubs are tracking Ostersunds striker Saman Ghoddos following his impressive Europa League displays against Arsenal, sources have told ESPN FC.<\/strong><\/p>\n

West Ham United, Leicester City, Southampton, West Bromwich Albion and Brighton & Hove Albion had scouts watch Ghoddos, who helped set up both goals in Ostersunds’ stunning 2-1 victory over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday night.<\/p>\n

Ghoddos caught the eye in the first leg meeting in Sweden last week and won praise from Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger in that game.<\/p>\n

“Technically and tactically, I was impressed by him,” Wenger said in his news conference ahead of the second leg.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old scored four goals and had four assists in Ostersunds’ Europa League campaign, where they progressed through the qualifying rounds to the group stages before the round-of-32 meeting with Arsenal.<\/p>\n

Ghoddos’ agent, Ferhat Cifici, was in London to watch the game against Arsenal and confirmed there was interest in the player, but he refused to reveal the clubs chasing him.<\/p>\n

Clubs from all over Europe have been alerted to Ghoddos’ form with Celta Vigo and Hoffenheim also expressing interest.<\/p>\n

Ostersunds are aware of the growing interest in Ghoddos and they are bracing themselves for offers when the transfer window reopens in the summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
