Newcastle and West Ham target Henri Bedimo entertains summer switch
NEWCASTLE and West Ham target Henri Bedimo admits he is open to a move to the Premier League in the summer.
Bedimo has been in good form for Montpellier this season, and caught the attention of a number of Europe's leading clubs with his performances in the Champions League group stages.
The Cameroon star is also a mooted target for Lyon and PSG, but he will wait until the end of the season before deciding where his future lies.
However, he has placed a premium on playing Champions League football, which could put the Magpies and West Ham out of the running.
He said: "I have heard of the interest of clubs in the Premier League, but when you hear there is interest from a Champions League club in France then you have to think about it.
"Newcastle and West Ham are both good clubs in the best league in the world, but I will not decide my future until at the end of the season.
"I want to be playing in the Champions League as well."
Bedimo has been a constant fixture for Montpellier and has racked up 30 starts in all competitions.
