Ognjen Vukojevic believes he will be a Premier League player next season but refused to name the club he is set to join.

The Dynamo Kiev midfielder has stated his desire to move to England on many occasions but he now claims a deal to fulfil his dream is close to completion.

The 29-year-old Croatian has been on loan at Spartak Moscow since February, making 10 appearances as the Russian club finished fourth in the Premier League.

He has been linked with a permanent move to the Russian capital, but says this is unlikely.

"Spartak Moscow is happy with me but the problem is the asking price," he told Sportske Novosti, "Dynamo Kiev have set it too high."

He continued: "I can't hide that I would like to play in England. In fact I'm close to a move to one of the clubs in the Premier League."

Vukojevic has played 48 times for his country and it is thought he would cost around £7.5million.
