A number of English clubs are tracking Helsingborgs hot-shot David Accam, Sky Sports understands.

The 23-year-old is earning rave reviews in Sweden and is currently joint top scorer in Allsvenskan with 14 goals in 19 appearances.

Accam, who can play as a winger or a striker, is a product of the Right to Dream academy in his native Ghana and he spent time in the English non-league ranks earlier in his career.

It was at Ostersund where Accam came to prominence scoring nine goals in 14 games, prompting Helsinborg to pay a record fee for a player from the Swedish third division.

Accam has won several call-ups to the Ghana national team in the last 18 months, but is yet to make his debut.

Scouts from clubs across Europe are thought to have watched the exciting attacker in action this season.

The likes of Leicester, Norwich and Brighton are all thought to be monitoring Accam, with Helsingborg bracing themselves for offers for the forward in the New Year.
