Standard Liège value the versatile full-back Opare at £7m

Sunderland among five clubs chasing Ghanaian youngster Opare
Sunderland are among the clubs monitoring the
potential availability of the Ghana defender
Daniel Opare.


Opare, a 20-year-old who can play at either
right-back or left-back, joined Standard Liège
from Real Madrid Castilla – the reserve club of
the Spanish giants – a year ago and is now
attracting attention from several clubs across
Europe.

Lyon, Lille, Wolfsburg and Spartak Moscow have
joined Sunderland in being interested in a player
whom Liège have valued at £7m but who is likely
to be sold for something closer to £4m.

Opare, a fast and overlapping full-back, received
his first international call-up at 17 and was
involved in Ghana’s 1-1 draw against England at
Wembley last month.
