TP Mazembe striker Tresor Mputu is courting plenty of Premiership interest.

The DR Congo ace will begin Blackburn trials this week, but his agent Severin Bohuis told skysports.com: "We are currently sorting out a visa for Tresor to come over to England and he should be here by Thursday.

"He is due to go and train with Blackburn once he receives his visa, but there are loads of clubs interested in him as he is one the best players in Africa.

"Tottenham are interested in him and we will see what happens at Blackburn."
