Udinese midfielder Jakub Jankto has stated he would consider a move to the Premier League in the long term.
Reports in the Italian media have linked the Czech midfielder with a move to England with Arsenal, West Ham, West Brom and Leicester City all said to be keen on the 21 year old.
When asked about the links, Jankto was quoted by the Daily Star as saying a move to the Premier League or La Liga would interest him:
“It’s not the time to talk about it yet but I can see myself playing outside Italy, if we talk about the long-term. I’d like to try new experiences, maybe in the Premier League or La Liga.”
Jankto has just one year’s experience of top flight football in the first team. He was loaned out to Serie B side Ascoli last season but was given his chance to play for Udinese this campaign.
After starting the first four league games on the bench, he came on for the last five minutes in the 2-2 draw against Fiorentina in September. Since then he has rarely been out of the starting eleven, making 23 appearances in all competitions, scoring five goals and providing four assists from a central midfield position.
