Juan Fernando Quintero: Has been linked with Manchester United

The young playmaker has been a revelation at the Serie A club, catching the eye of a host of top European sides with his impressive displays this season.

United are thought to be keen on the 19-year-old but, while he says he would consider approaches from any big club, Quintero admits he would prefer to stay in Italy and is keen on a move to Inter.

"United? No, I like Inter," he told Gazzetta dello Sport.

"I prefer the Nerazzurri because they have a lot of South Americans at the club. And I'm happy in Italy.

"Saying that, it is clear that I would not turn down other strong teams because I'm ambitious: Manchester, Milan, Juventus...

"I'll decide with my family and with my agent."

Quintero has played down reports there is a €10million (£8.3m) price tag on his head should he be sold by Pescara.

"I don't know if I am worth that," he added. "I still need to learn and work hard. I need to improve as a player."

s there a PR agency covering Begovich, Odemwingie, Steven Fletcher and Grant Holt or something? Why would you offer a quote like that without having been announced by either club. #headsshoulderskneesandtoesgone

adly this is inevitable. No club outside the top 4/5 can hang on to anyone who shows that kind of talent anymore. Might be best for them to get as much as they can now while his stock is high and start again. On the plus side lads, Grant Holt is still available.
