Rennes midfielder Tongo Doumbia has revealed that he wants to play in the Premier League.
The 22-year-old has caught the attention of a number of English clubs after an impressive campaign in Ligue 1.
Doumbia, who has been targeted by Arsenal, said that he is in no rush to leave Rennes but insisted that he wants to play in England.
"I know these are progressing well, but we must talk about Rennes now," the Frenchman told Le 10 Sport. "Not that I want to leave Rennes but my desire is to play in the Premier League, for its atmosphere in the stadiums and the fans.
"If it were up to me I would be playing in England next season."
Doumbia moved to Rennes from Chateauroux in 2009.
