Premier League target Bakkali to join club in one of 'Europe's biggest leagues'

Teenage Belgian superstar Zakaria Bakkali is expected to snub a move to Scottish champions Celtic in favour of a move to one of 'Europe's biggest clubs'.

Bakkali, who almost joined the Glasgow giants in the last transfer window, has revealed that he has 13 offers on the table to move from PSV Eindhoven.

A range of other European clubs are said to be interested in the Belgian winger, with Spanish side Valencia leading the chase.

He said: "I have deliberately said nothing until now. I currently have 13 offers, but I wanted to go to a country where there was a big league.

"My choice is 95 per cent confirmed.

"I will go to a club where I will play, I will sign for a club in one of the biggest leagues in Europe."

Although a move to Valencia looks likely, the 19-year old has also been linked with a move to Premier League outfit Stoke City.
