The left-back says he is aware of reported interest from Sir Alex Ferguson’s side but is keen to stay in France, play regularly and develop his game further

Lille left-back Lucas Digne says he is flattered to learn of interest from Premier League leaders Manchester United but is not planning to leave the Ligue 1 side.

The teenager has reportedly been interesting a number of top clubs, and he feels that he must be playing well to attract the attention of Sir Alex Ferguson’s men.

Digne told Le 10 Sport: “Manchester United: They are a top club and to be linked with them means you must be doing something well, but I will not lose sleep.

“I live day to day because I feel very happy at Lille, this is the club of my heart, the club that developed me.

“I do not make plans in a rush. I am very much at Lille, I am not planning to leave.

“I see things from the perspective of staying for a while to continue to play regularly, gain experience and develop.”
