Manchester United target Nathaniel Clyne has edged closer to a summer exit from Southampton after expressing his desire to play Champions League football.
United’s interest in the defender has been heavy this season as boss Louis van Gaal continues to search for improvements in his defensive area.
Chelsea have also held interest in the youngster, but United are now buoyed Clyne’s words on his future ambitions.
“It’s always good to have teams looking out for you, it shows how well you’ve been doing all season,” he told Sky Sports.
“I am going to take that, and keep on performing and be the best player I can be.
“Right now I’m concentrating on playing for Southampton, there are still games to play, and try to push for that fourth spot.
“I am an ambitious person and I want to play Champions League football. To win the title and the FA Cup, that is what I want.”
