Being linked with United is a positive thing.
Bosingwa
Quotes of the week
Porto's highly-rated right-back Jose Bosingwa is flattered at being linked with Manchester United, but has played down talk of an imminent move.
The 25-year-old has been strongly linked with Aston Villa in the past, although The Red Devils are now believed to be interested with question marks hanging over the long-term fitness of Gary Neville.
Bosingwa would love to play alongside the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Anderson and Nani at Old Trafford, but is simply concentrating on Porto for the remainder of the season.
"Being linked with United is a positive thing as it means I am performing well," Bosingwa is quoted in the News of the World.
"United are a sensational club. To play next to Cristiano Ronaldo, Anderson and Nani is such a big advantage.
"But until the end of the season I think only of Porto. I want to fight for the Champions League."
