Barely two seasons since he last played for a club, former Black Stars captain, Stephen Appiah, has hinted of a possible return to active football in January.
The former Fernerbahce star, whose career took a tumble due to a knee injury, said in an interview with the Graphic Sports that he was close to clinching a deal but preferred to keep the identity of the club under wraps until he completed the paper work.
Two seasons ago, Appiah�s botched deal with Perspolis FC in the Iranian league raised a lot of concerns, leaving him clubless for a long time.
�It is true I�m returning to the pitch in January, I have a couple of offers but I don�t want to disclose it here, I always want to put pen to paper before I say a word�, the midfielder stated.
At 33, Appiah, who is considered by many as one of the best players to have captained the Black Stars, does not think it�s time to hang his boots as he believes he still has a lot to offer as a footballer.
After his recovery, Appiah has had stints with Cesena in the Italian serie A before moving to Serbian side, FK Vojvodina.
