Copenhagen coach Solbakken says Liverpool, Man Utd target Amartey "not ready for Premier League"

FC Copenhagen coach Stale Solbakken says young defender Daniel Amartey isn't ready for the Premier League.

The Ghanaian has been linked with Manchester United and Liverpool this season.

But Solbakken, once of Wolves, told Bold: "All players are for sale if the price is right, but Daniel cannot play in England now, he has not played enough international matches and doesn't have enough experience to play in the Premier League.

"He still has much to learn with FC Copenhagen, but also needs to play more international matches and European matches to gain international experience to succeed in England, and I do not think there are many clubs in the Premier League which would fetch him now.

"He has risen rapidly, and it is great for such a young player. He undoubtedly has some interesting qualities, but he will not go to a big league yet, it is too early."
