Copenhagen winger Roony Bardghji gives update on future amid Manchester United transfer links
Copenhagen winger Roony Bardghji has admitted he is flattered by transfer reports linking him with a move to a 'big club'.
Bardghji has developed a reputation as one of Europe's most exciting talents and he's been linked with Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham. The 18-year-old made an appearance from the bench against United at the Parken Stadium in November and he scored a stunning winning goal to make the game 4-3 to Copenhagen.
That defeat was a huge blow to United's hopes of qualifying from their Champions League group and they subsequently crashed out of Europe, with Bayern Munich and Copenhagen progressing.

Bardghji will likely remain at Copenhagen beyond the January transfer window and he should get an opportunity to test himself against Manchester United over two legs in the Round of 16 tie.
When asked about the reports of transfer interest, Bardghji told Danish newspaper Tipsbladet: "It is, of course, special, but it’s not stressing me out. I take it as motivation every time I step onto the field. It motivates me to get better.
"It’s a dream [to move to a big club], and it’s nice to hear because it means I’m doing well, but I try not to think too much about it. As I’ve said before, I feel ready, but when the time is right – whether it’s now or later – I don’t know.
"The timing has to be right, but right now, I’m only focusing on getting in top form and playing football. The most important thing for me is the plan for me and my development.
"I need to feel comfortable with the coach, the club, and everything else. That’s the most important thing as a player."
