Former Enyimba midfielder Henry Uche had reportedly agreed in principle to pen a three - year deal with Turkish club Bursaspor when the transfer window reopens in the summer.

Now there are reports suggesting that the 22 - year - old could be playing for a South African Premier League club instead.

Grant Nieuwenhuys, who represents Uche, told soccerladuma.co.za: ''We are keen to bring Henry to South Africa, but we will only start looking from this week.

''We’ve been given the mandate from our partners abroad, Bro Soccer Management, and we’re hoping that we can organise a good move for him.''

Last December, Henry Uche tested with Greek club Asteras Tripolis, but nothing came out of the trials.
