The agent of Heerenveen striker Alfred Finnbogason has revealed the interest of English clubs.

Aston Villa and AC Milan are being linked with the young Icelander, whose agent likens him to Marco van Basten.

Magnus Magnusson told MilanNews.it: "It is true, around him there are many rumors, the big clubs are actually monitoring him.

"But we are aware that under the guidance of the great Marco van Basten, Alfred can grow and we feel it'd be better to leave the player until June, although it depends on the offer.

"The Premier League would be a great option. He's very flattered by these rumors."
