Portsmouth star keen on England stay

The Nigeria international is expected to leave Portsmouth, following their relegation to the Championship.

Bolton, Sunderland, Fulham, Cologne and Bayer Leverkusen have all been linked with the 28-year-old.

Utaka said: “My manager is looking into the offers before him. Everything is in the air. I would like to stay in the Premier League.

“It is quick, aggressive and direct and there are loads of goals every week. And, yes, the money in England is also good.”
