'When you hear a club like Manchester United are interested in you it is an honour,' the 24-year-old told the Daily Express.
'I am very aware of the Premier League, and in recent years it has been the stand-out league in the world. If it came calling, especially if it was a club like Manchester United, it would be very hard to resist.
