New suitors in Remy race

Skysports.com understands one of the Premier League's major clubs has joined the chase for Nice ace Loic Remy.

Remy is one of the most sought-after players in this summer's transfer window with a host of clubs across Europe chasing his services.

Remy is regarded as one of the best young strikers in Europe after impressing at Nice over the last few seasons

Skysports.com revealed last week Liverpool had expressed an interest in the 23-year-old hot-shot as they look to bolster their attacking options.

West Ham have held a long-term interest in Remy and have already seen a couple of offers rebuffed by Nice, while Tottenham have also been keeping tabs on the forward's situation.

However, a mystery Premier League side have now thrown their hat into the ring for Remy as they look to steal a march on their rivals for the player.

Nice are prepared to sell Remy for the right price and the striker has admitted his desire to try his luck in England.

Remy's agent, Frederic Guerra, has admitted a major Premier League club has joined the chase for the Frenchman.

"A major club from the Premier League have contacted me about Loic," Guerra told skysports.com.

"I have a meeting with the club tomorrow [Wednesday] and we will see what happens.

"Whatever happens Loic will be leaving Nice this summer and he has his heart set on England."
