Atletico Madrid keeper Asenjo honoured by Chelsea, Man Utd interest

Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo's agent admits he is honoured to be linked with clubs such as Chelsea. Manchester United and AC Milan.

The promising 20-year old shot-stopper has been impressive for Atletico this term after joining from Valladolid and clubs are set to pounce on him in the summer transfer window but his agent Zoran Vekic says he is not yet ready to make a decision whilst confirming plenty of interest from big clubs in Europe.

"The interest of top clubs like AC Milan and Chelsea is an honour," Vekic told Calciomercato.

"In football anything is possible, but until the end of the season we will not take any decision.

"Atletico Madrid has made a major investment in him and together at the end of the season we'll evaluate the situation.

"We know that the Rossoneri have followed him but last year there were also Barcelona and Manchester United and there was also a deal with Fiorentina."
