Huddersfield Town close to signing Agyemang Badu

Ghana midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang Badu is close to joining English Premier League side Huddersfield Town.

Badu who is currently on a pre-season tour with his club Udinese could fly to the UK in the coming days for a medical should a deal be reached.

His representatives have opened talks with the newly promoted side over a potential move.

If the deal should go through, this will be the first time Agyemang Badu will be playing outside Italy since joining Udinese in 2011.

Badu enjoyed a successful career in Italy with Udinese but could be parting ways with his current paymasters in search of premier league football.
