English giants Chelsea and Liverpool have been linked with a move for Ghana defender Jerry Akaminko. The 25-year-old, who plays for Turkish side Eskisehirspor, is a target of several clubs in Europe with Galatasaray believed to be the most serious contender. Reports in England suggested on Wednesday that Liverpool and Chelsea are interested in briging the Ghanaian international to the Premier League. The strong centre-back has been outstanding in Turkey this season and his form has attracted the interest of heavyweight clubs. AS Monaco have moved to open talks with Eskisehirspor about a fee for Akaminko this week. This could kick Chelsea and Liverpool into action, with both English giants credited with interest in the defender.
