Ivorian forward sees his future in the Premier League

Le Mans striker Gervinho has admitted that he would relish the opportunity to play in the Premier League. The Ivory Coast international is currently on the books of Le Mans, but has seen his profile rise considerably this season. A number of eye-catching displays at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing brought him to the attention of Europe's top teams, while he has also performed admirably at domestic level despite his club enduring a difficult season in Ligue 1. He insists that he remains happy in France for now, but has revealed his ambition to secure a move to England in the future. "My future is at Le Mans at the moment. It is here that I belong," Gervinho told skysports.com. "Anything else is just a dream at the moment. The Premier League? That is just a dream. "One day, maybe next year, maybe in two years, I will go. I know there has been interest."
