Ghanaian defender Baba Rahman has reportedly piqued the interest of two English Premier League clubs following his outstanding season with Greek powerhouse PAOK.
Reports from Greece and local media in Ghana suggest that several English clubs have been keeping tabs on the former Chelsea left-back.
Rahman Baba has enjoyed the best season of his career, with his return to PAOK being a resounding success. He has made 42 appearances, logged 3,382 minutes, scored 6 goals, and provided 4 assists.
His significant presence and contributions on the field this season have sparked transfer rumors. Baba is well-acquainted with English football, having previously played for Chelsea and Reading.
According to reports from Ghana, scouts from Brentford were present at PAOK’s match against Dinamo Zagreb to observe him closely.
With Brentford having lost Rico Henry to a knee injury, they are actively searching the market. Moreover, newly-promoted Ipswich, making their return to the Premier League, has placed Baba on their radar as they aim to bolster their squad for the top-tier competition.
The report highlights that “Baba has rediscovered his best form, and his tenure at PAOK has been distinguished by remarkable performances in both the league and European competitions.”
