Manchester City and Arsenal target Kwadwo Asamoah was missing from Udinese training on the weekend.
The Ghana international midfielder’s absence has sparked speculation that Udinese coach Francesco Guidolin is preparing to lose the youngster this summer.
It has also been reported that a host of clubs across Europe are tracking Asamoah, who enjoyed a stellar World Cup campaign in South Africa.
Asamoah is 21 years of age and can play in either central or left midfield.
