Surrey are being linked with Pakistan left-arm fast bowler Sohail Tanvir, who was dropped for his country's series in Sri Lanka after some poor displays in last month's World Twenty20.
The county have not confirmed the news but Tanvir insists he has signed a contract with Surrey and is now waiting for his work permit.
He told the Pakistan television channel Business Plus: "Since I am not a part of the Pakistan team at the moment, this stint with Surrey will provide me with good practice.
"I am aware that I am not bowling to the best of my ability, but I am confident that the loss of form is temporary and bowling at The Oval will give me my confidence and form back."
