Mustapha Riga admits he would be tempted to move to the Premier League if Bolton, Middlesbrough or West Brom step up their interest in him.
The Levante forward is trying to get his contract annulled through non-payment of wages so he can choose another club on a free transfer.
According to Spanish journalist Guillem Balague, Riga has been engaged in talks with Bolton Wanderers, with a view to joining them when his appeal has been granted by the Spanish FA.
Riga, who can play either on the wing or up front, has also been linked with moves to The Riverside and The Hawthorns and he admits a move to England holds an appeal.
He said: "The Premier League has always been my first target. I have always wanted to play in the Premier League because it is also one of the best leagues in Europe.
"A very close friend of mine George Boateng always calls me - 'come to England, with your style of play you'll make it'
"I chose to come to Spain first, but you never know. If there is an official offer I would not hesitate."
