According to reports in France English Premier League champions Manchester United are reportedly keen on Grenoble starlet Sofiane Feghouli.
The 19-year-old attacking midfielder has seen his name linked with a number of Europe’s biggest clubs and the youngster was expected to depart last summer with Barcelona, Liverpool and Inter Milan monitoring his situation.
