African pair Akinkunmi Amoo and Erick Otieno are being watched by Premier League clubs.

Hammarby midfielder Amoo and AIK defender Otieno came together in the Allsvenskan yesterday, with AIK winning 2-0.

Sportbladet says scouts from Manchester City, Brighton and Leicester City were in the stands to check on the pair.

Otieno said later: "It was a good match. When you meet a player as good as Amoo, you must not give him space. You have to keep him covered at all times.

"I kept an eye on him. He had no room at all to move around. It really is a wonderful feeling when you feel that you have succeeded with your game. The most important thing for a defender is to be able to defend. That must be the first priority."
