Premier League teams have interest in K-League Classic club Ulsan Hyundai's towering striker Kim Shin-wook, British media reported on Sunday (local time).
"The South Korean version of Peter Crouch has had a very good year with the only question mark on whether injury means he will move in January or July," BBC said, assessing with the help of global football experts 50 possible moves that could happen in January.
Crouch, 6 ft 7 in (201 centimeters), plays for Premier League club Stoke City as a attacker.
Kim, 6 ft 5 in (196 centimeters), has already turned down Spartak Moscow and there has been interest from Premier League teams, the report said.
The 26-year-old Kim has been getting rehabilitation treatment since he suffered injuries on his right shin during a football match of the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea, in September.
