Lucas Digne: Man Utd talk won't unsettle me

Lille fullback Lucas Digne is staying grounded over interest from Manchester United.

The 19-year-old left-back, who is one of French football's brightest talents, has been linked with a number of leading clubs.

Among them are United, who may be ready to pounce in the summer, and bring in Digne as a replacement or an understudy to compatriot Patrice Evra.

Digne told Le 10 Sport: "They [United] are a top club and to be linked with them means you must be doing something well, but I will not lose sleep.

"I live day-to-day because I feel very happy at Lille - this is the club of my heart, the club that developed me. I do not make plans in a rush. I am very much at Lille, I am not planning to leave.

"I see things from the perspective of staying for a while to continue to play regularly, gain experience and develop."
