French ace keen on Premiership switch

Liverpool and Wigan have both been linked with a move for the 24-year-old.

“Mathieu would very much be interested in playing in England as the Premier League is the best in Europe,” Christophe Hutteau told skysports.com.

“Wigan are interested in Mathieu, but I think Mathieu would like to go to a big team in England.

“Liverpool are also interested in Mathieu, but so are teams in Spain, Germany, Italy and Russia.

“I think Mathieu will leave Marseille and I think it is very possible he could play in England this season.”
