Younes Belhanda keen on Premier League switch

Montpellier winger Younes Belhanda has revealed that he is still eager to move to the Premier League amid reported interest from Aston Villa.

Villa are one of five clubs, including AC Milan and Inter Milan, who are thought to be in the running to sign the 23-year-old Moroccan international.

"I have told everyone that England will be my first choice," Belhanda is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"Aston Villa is a great club with a big history playing in the best league in the world, so let's see what will happen."

Belhanda signed his first professional contract with Montpellier in 2009 following a six-year spell in the club's youth system.
