Vitesse Arnhem forward and Ivory Coast international Wilfried Bony has admitted that the English Premier League would be "perfect" for him amidst talk about his potential move to the country.
Bony has been nothing short of prolific with the Eredivisie side this season. He has already scored a total 37 goals as well as tallied in eight assists for the club in just 34 appearances.
It is no wonder that a long list of Premier League clubs are looking to sign the 24-year-old – the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and even West Ham United have all been linked with moving to secure his signature.
And the Ivorian may have fanned the fires a bit more during an interview with the BBC, where he said, "I’m very interested in the Premier League and the atmosphere in England, it’s a wonderful league and we will see what happens.

"For me the Premier League is the top league [in Europe], but the Bundesliga is also good – France, Italy and Spain they’re all good too. England I think would be perfect", the Vitesse striker added.
Bony’s contract with Vitesse will see him tied at the GelreDome until the end of 2014/15 season, but it is likely that a substantial bid could see him exit the Eredivisie long before that date.
