Manchester United we’re linked heavily with the 22 year old attacker before he decided to move to Italy to improve his game.

And the rising star told Gazzetta dello Sport ”I don’t think about the transfer market but only about playing.

“I look to my progress and I am pleased as I am maturing, even if I’m only at 40 per cent of my potential.

“I know that my future depends on me, and I know I am on the right track.

“The interest of Inter and Manchester United? It’s nice to know that I am valued and I’d like to play in a big club but another season with Udinese should be good for me because I still lack a final piece for the final leap.

“My preferences? I like English football more because they go a thousand miles per hour, never stop, like me.

“But for now it is a problem that I pose, the contract (with Udinese) expires in 2015. It is necessary that I score more goals, assists are not enough for me. Then I have to learn to control better myself.

“I hope to score 10 goals, so maybe I’ll help Udinese to qualify for Europe. Also the Champions League is a possible achievement. And if we finish in the top four you can be sure that I won’t move.”
