Man United and Arsenal target Nicolas Otamendi eyes 'dream' Premier League move
NICOLAS OTAMENDI is hopeful of a 'dream' move to the Premier League, according to Spanish football expert Guillem Balague.
Nicolas Otamendi is said to be eyeing a switch to the Premier League
The Sky Sports journalist claims that sources close to the player have revealed he wants a switch to England.
And Manchester United and Arsenal are said to be the frontrunners for the central defender's signature.
Balague tweeted: "On Otamendi. Sources close to the player say his dream is to go to the PL and United will continue trying to get him. Valencia pessimistic."
Otamendi was once a target of previous United boss David Moyes and Valencia's sporting director said last week that he could be tempted by an offer from the Red Devils.

Otamendi's current deal with Valencia runs until 2019, but he's believed to be part-owned by the Doyen Sports Group, who also had a share in Marcos Rojo's rights when he was at Sporting Lisbon.
