Rennes midfielder Faitout Maouassa has welcomed interest from Manchester United.

However, the youngster insists he isn't getting carried away.

Maouassa told Telefoot: “Inevitably, with the season we did, we are all a bit in demand. But personally, I'm fine in Rennes. This year there is the European Cup, there is no real reason for me to go. I feel great here.

"The interest of Manchester United? Frankly, it doesn't go to my head. Yes, it makes me happy, I'm not going to lie to you. It really makes me happy to see that clubs like that are interested in me. It is really only happiness.

"But as I told you, I feel great in Rennes and I keep my feet on the ground."
