Valencia defender Miguel believes he would be ideally suited to playing in the Premier League.

The Portugal international has been in fine form for the La Liga side this season and claims he is being tracked by numerous clubs.

Miguel is enjoying life at the Mestalla, although he admits he would relish the challenge of competing in England.

"It is good that other teams have recognised what I am doing and that they are showing an interest in me," he said in The Sun.

"I am happy here. But my style of play would suit the English league."

Miguel's comments have fuelled speculation that Chelsea may consider a move for him in the January transfer window.

Blues boss Luiz Felipe Scolari worked closely with Miguel during his time in charge of Portugal and may want to strengthen his defence in the New Year.
