The representative of Nordsjaelland defender Jores Okore claims that his client is flattered by speculation linking him with a possible move to Manchester United.

The representative of Nordsjaelland defender Jores Okore has claimed that his client is flattered by speculation linking him with a possible move to Manchester United.

United are reportedly lining up a bid for Okore in January, but agent Nicola Juric says that the Red Devils are yet to make an official approach for the 20-year-old.

"I am flattered and I am sure that Jores is flattered too," Juric told bold.dk. "I believe that there are a lot of clubs interested in Jores but I have not heard anything from Manchester United. I only know that Peter Schmeichel has recommend Jores to Alex Ferguson.

"It is normal for teams in England to use two types of defenders, a stopper and a ball-playing defender like Daniel Agger. There are not a lot of these ball-playing defenders like Jores available.

"There is interest from Russia, England, Germany, France and the two big clubs in Ukraine, Shakhtar Donetsk and Dinamo Kiev and Jores is open for anything. The most important thing for him is that any potential suitor really believes in him."

Okore made five appearances for Nordsjaelland during this season's Champions League group stage.
