One of the most promising French football players, Lucas Digne, has caught the eye of "Manchester United" club.

The 19-year-old defender, who plays for "Lille", is being monitored by other European giants, but Sir Alex Ferguson hopes to acquire the player as Patrice Evra's successor.

However, L. Digne does not plan to leave just yet: "I am very happy playing for Lille. My heart belongs to this club, which has made me who I am.

The Frenchman has been playing for the main "Lille" team since 2011. During this period, the player has entered the field 39 times and scored one goal."
