Lens youngster happy to snub English move

Lens teenager Serge Aurier looks set to stay in France, snubbing a possible move to England. Sunderland are reported to have joined the face to sign the highly-rated full-back with Blackburn and Manchester City already believed to be keen on the 18-year-old. However, Aurier now admits that he is more likely to remain in France. "To be honest I want to play in this country [France] for the next two years," Aurier said. "I want to have more experience before leaving for a foreign country. "Some people think that way for me, whilst others want me to go to a top league to progress. "But the final decision is mine, I want to improve here - I want to play in Ligue 1 and progress, the priority for me is not moving abroad."
