SK Sturm Graz sporting director Günter Kreissl says the Austrian Bundesliga side are interested in signing Ghana defender Gideon Mensah on a permanent deal.

Mensah, 201 joined Sturm Graz on loan from Red Bull Salzburg this January and has been one of their outstanding players.

The former WAFA left-back has made ten [10] league appearances.

“Gideon Mensah is, of course, an interesting player and we are in discussions in this regard, which I do not currently want to comment,” Kreissl told the media.

The Ghana U-23 defender spent the first half of the season on loan at second-tier side Liefering.
