Bordeaux defender Lamine Sane is keen to prove himself in the Premiership. Sane has been linked with a move to West Ham United, Everton and Southampton and he hopes a move to England is not that far away.

"I am a big fan of the English league, everyone knows that," Sane told Sky Sports.

"It is a dream to play in England and I want to go there and test myself to the limit against the likes of Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney, Dimitar Berbatov and Fernando Torres."

The Senegal international added: "I am being linked with some teams but I think there is a serious one who watched me several times this season.

"I hope they conclude a deal with Bordeaux and that I can play in England."
