Shabani Nonda is hoping for an English Premier League return after being released by Turkish club Galatasaray.

The Congolese striker, who spent six months on loan with Blackburn Rovers in 2006/07, has been linked with a move to top flight strugglers Portsmouth but his agent suggests that any move back to England would be a good one.

"Shabani is free to go anywhere he likes after he left Galatasaray," agent John Dario told skysports.com.

"I have heard of interest from English teams, but I have not spoken to any clubs as yet.

"Shabani was very happy at Blackburn and he would come back to England with pleasure."
