Premier League newcomers Aston Villa and Sheffield United both reportedly want to raid Ligue 1 Angers for striker Bahoken.
Angers are willing to let Stephane Bahoken leave the club this summer, according to France Football, with the striker linked with Premier League newcomers Aston Villa and Sheffield United.
The five-time Cameroon international enjoyed the best season of his career in 2018/19, scoring a personal-best 11 goals in Ligue 1 as Angers finished in a comfortable mid-table position.
The Mirror (28 May, page 68) reported that Aston Villa and Sheffield United were both vying to sign Bahoken after sealing their long-awaited returns to the Premier League at the end of last season with RMC Sport claiming that the forward is valued at an affordable £8.5 million.
And, according to France Football, Angers are willing to listen to offers for their star striker.
Les Scoistes are apparently desperate to hang onto their prized asset, the former Arsenal youngster Jeff Reine-Adelaide, but they are open to letting Bahoken and fellow forward Florian Tait depart the Stade Raymond Kopa.
Aston Villa have been linked with Bahoken frequently over the last 12 months with RMC Sport claiming that they offered him a deal after he left Strasbourg last summer.
