Cagliari midfielder Nicolo Barella admits he has ambitions of playing in England.

Gazzetta dello Sport says Liverpool and Tottenham have made enquiries with Cagliari about the youngster's situation this season.

A valuation of €50m has been raised by Cagliari president Tommaso Giulini.

And Barella says: "Cagliari has received offers and rejected them. I am glad that I am still playing for the club that I am a supporter of. I feel at home here. In consultation with the chairman, we have chosen to ignore the proposals.

"I have not even considered them, Cagliari has always been my first choice. If I had to choose between the Serie A and the Premier League, I would go for England because I love the way they approach the game."
