Arda Turan is already catching the attention of Premier League clubs after his agent revealed that the midfielder is interested in a move to England.

Despite having another two years remaining on his contract, Turan is apparently eager to leave Atletico Madrid after four seasons with the club.

"His intention is to leave Spain this summer," Turan's agent, Ahmet Bulut, told Spanish publication AS, as translated by The Telegraph.

"His will is to leave and to play in the Premier League. That is the path he would like to take to continue his career.

"We are currently in talks with three teams but I cannot reveal the names of the clubs. However, I can tell you that they are the best in England and in European football."

Manchester United and Liverpool are among the teams interested in the Turkey international, according to The Telegraph, while AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain could also be contenders for his signature.

"It's true that Milan and PSG are two of the six teams that are interested in him," Bulut said. "But the Italian team is not among our options because they will not play in the Champions League next season.

"PSG is a possibility, although Arda always has the desire to play in England."
