Sulley Muntari will head for a short break to recover from the devastation of Ghana's World Cup exit before returning to seal his dream move to the Premiership.

Muntari's best efforts were not enough to prevent the Black Stars becoming the victim of an 11th consecutive Brazil finals win.

But the 22-year-old former Manchester United triallist did enough against the Samba stars to enhance his chances of getting a dream move to England from Udinese by the start of next season.

Muntari has already been linked with Bolton and other top-flight clubs are bound to be interested in the midfielder, who is ready for a new challenge after four years in Serie A.

"I will go on vacation now and, after that, I expect I will get to play at a bigger club," he said.

"I am still waiting for someone to make contact but I would like to play in England. That is the dream for me now."

Skipper Stephen Appiah is another Ghanaian who is bound to have caught the eye of hopeful Premiership managers during the past three weeks.

However, Appiah's main priority just now is to ensure Ghana perform respectably when they host the 2008 African Nations Cup and then go on to qualify for the next World Cup in South Africa in four years' time, the first to be held on African soil.

"We have to prepare ourselves for the African Nations Cup, do well there and then get to the next World Cup," he said.

"After what we have achieved here, taking that next step is very important for us."

At least at the African Nations Cup Ghana will be spared the perceived refereeing injustices they suffered against Brazil.

Although Slovakian referee Lubos Michel maintained control of the contest, Ghana felt all the borderline decisions went Brazil's way, reinforcing the growing feeling that the big teams are being favoured.

"The big teams definitely get an advantage," said Muntari.

"I lost count of the number of times we made perfectly fair tackles, yet the referee blew for a foul.

"It is very frustrating and it is not fair but what can you do?"
