Chelsea target Sankoh turned down by Leicester, Huddersfield

Stoke City's Sankoh brothers admit both Leicester City and Huddersfield Town could've signed them.

Sixteen year-old Mohamed Sankoh is interesting Chelsea and Atletico Madrid, while older brother Abdul is also making waves.

The pair made their way to England via Sparta Rotterdam, as Abdul told Voetbalzone: "We had no choice. Our mother emigrated to England and we had to come along.

"It was a completely different environment. Of course we helped each other in this. Together we're not alone. We went looking for trials in England."

Mohamed chimed in: "We did an internship at Leicester City."

"And Huddersfield," added Abdul.
