Premier League<\/a> clubs.<\/p>\nThe Cameroon international, 28, famed for scoring spectacular goals, has been watched by Tottenham, Everton, Birmingham, Wigan and West Ham.<\/p>\n
He has scored 32 goals in 85 appearances for Betis since joining from French club Toulouse in 2008, and the cash-strapped Spanish second division club may now need to offload him in order to raise funds.<\/p>\n
The player\u2019s UK agent Bill McMurdo told Goal.com<\/strong>: “There are a lot of Premier League clubs interested in him. I know that for sure. Everton, Spurs, Birmingham, West Ham and Wigan have all watched him in the last few weeks.<\/p>\n“Nobody\u2019s made an offer. In the case of Birmingham, and especially West Ham and Wigan, they don\u2019t know if they\u2019ll stay up so they won\u2019t make offers until their Premier League status is assured.<\/p>\n
“If he wants to go, and I know that he does, I think he will be with an English club next season. There\u2019s a strong possibility of that.<\/p>\n
“There are also three French clubs who have made it known to me that they\u2019re interested in the player, but I\u2019m not prepared to name them right now. But I definitely think there will be progress in the next couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
“I know that Betis are asking for about \u20ac7 million or \u20ac8m \u00a36m-\u00a37m for him, but I think he could possibly go for \u20ac5m or \u20ac6m \u00a34.5m-\u00a35.5m. I think Betis may have to raise funds in order to buy players and balance the books.<\/p>\n
“He\u2019s very keen to leave, be it to come to England or to go to France. There are no concrete offers yet, but he could well come to England. I know that at least one of those clubs is really keen on him.”<\/p>\n
Emana was on the books of Valencia as a youth player before joining Toulouse, where he scored 28 goals in 231 appearances. It is at Betis that his career has really taken off with a string of eye-catching displays.<\/p>\n
He has played 35 times for Cameroon, including two appearances at the 2010 World Cup.<\/p>\n
