Premier League target Okore plans to leave Nordsjaelland

FC Nordsjaelland defender Jores Okore insists he will depart the club at the end of the season.

The 20-year old Ivory Coast-born Denmark international has been linked with a number of Premier League clubs, including Fulham, in the past six months and suggests he may be heading to England in the next transfer window.

"This summer I should leave," Okore told Sporten.dk.

"That is the time when I have the biggest chance and I certainly hope that it will happen.

"It is still FCN who decide, but it is my plan to leave this summer.

"I had certainly hoped that I would be able to move right now.

"I want to prove myself on a higher level. But it is also difficult to join a new club in the middle of the season.

"I believe that it was not FC Nordsjaelland's plan that I should leave during this transfer window."
