The 22-year-old Ghana international has attracted the attention of several European clubs with fine performances with Udinese this season. "I cannot deny that there are several clubs interested," said agent Claudio Vagheggi to Firenzeviola.it. "Manchester City? It's true but they are not the only ones interested in Asamoah. Fiorentina were among the first to show an interest in the player. "But we have decided not to speak about Udinese's transfer market right now because it is premature. "Udinese's strategy is to focus on the season right now. "If the team continues to do so well and perhaps reach an important goal by the end of this season, then, Asamoah is likely to remain." Asamoah is valued at 30million euros by Udinese and is under contract with the Serie A outfit until June 2014. Udinese, who hammered Palermo 7-0 in Sicily last weekend, are fifth in Serie A, one point behind Lazio, who hold the last Champions League qualifying spot.
