The Ghana international midfielder previously claimed that he was closing in on a transfer to the Premier League, but now insists that is not the case

Torino midfielder Afriyie Acquah has posted a confusing message on social media amid links to Premier League new boys Newcastle.

During a recent interview with Ghana Web, the 25-year-old suggested that he was closing in on a move to the Premier League as a deal was “90 per cent done”.

He also admitted that playing in England was his “dream” and that he hoped a transfer would be pushed through during the summer window.
