Cillessen 'wanted by two English clubs'

Two unnamed Premier League clubs are interested in signing Ajax goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen in this summer's transfer window, according to a report from the Netherlands.

The Dutch international was strongly linked with a move to Manchester United when Louis van Gaal was in charge of the Red Devils, who at one point looked certain to lose David de Gea to Real Madrid.

De Gea ultimately remained at Old Trafford, which saw Man United drop their interest, but according to De Telegraaf, two unnamed English clubs want to bring the 27-year-old to the Premier League.

Cillessen, who has two years remaining on his current Ajax deal, made 44 appearances for his Dutch club during the 2015-16 campaign.
