No UK work permit worries for Arsenal, Chelsea target Abdul Baba Rahman - agent

EXCLUSIVE: Abdul Baba Rahman's agent is confident overcoming any UK work permit difficulties should the Augsburg fullback land a Premier League move.

The exciting defensive talent has been linked with Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City after an impressive Bundesliga campaign.

While refusing to comment on meetings in London, Baba Rahman's agent, Sascha Empacher told triballfootball.com there was no concern for the Ghana international about securing a UK work permit.

Empacher also stated it's no surprise Europe's biggest clubs are following the youngster.

"Baba is one of the young best talents in the world, so naturally the best clubs of the world are interested," he said.

However, despite the frenzied transfer speculation, Empacher says Baba Rahman will join Augsburg for their preseason kickoff.

"He is player of Augsburg FC and will join their preseason camp next week," he added.
