Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa ready to leave Montpellier

Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa has confirmed that he is ready to leave Montpellier for a top European club.

The highly-rated defender impressed a growing list of admirers last season as his team shocked France by claiming the Ligue 1 title.

Montpellier turned down a bid from AC Milan last week, leading Yanga-Mbiwa to reveal that he will leave the club if the right offer is made.

Yanga-Mbiwa said: "I'm here, but with a question mark because you never know, there are some offers that you cannot refuse.

"Playing for Manchester United would give great satisfaction and it would mean a dream could become a reality. Arsenal too are a big team."

Milan remain the favorites to sign the 23-year-old, with a host of clubs from across the continent still in the race.
