Ghana international striker Mahatma Otoo has admitted that speculation over a move to Sunderland this summer has not come as a surprise.

Otoo currently plays for Hearts of Oak in his homeland, but has attracted interest from a string of European clubs with his impressive scoring record this season.

The Black Cats are reportedly competing with a number of clubs in Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga for his signature, but Otoo has insisted that he dreams of a move to the Premier League.

He told Sky Sports News: "I am delighted with my season so far.

"There is interest from other clubs. I have heard about Lyon through the papers.

"I have heard about Sunderland as well. I would love to play in England one day. My destiny will take me there and it is my dream to score at Old Trafford, the Emirates, Anfield and Wembley."

The 21-year-old has a single international cap for the Black Stars, which he earned against Argentina in 2009.
