Manchester United and Southampton have been linked with a January swoop for Galatasaray play-maker Wesley Sneijder according to the Daily Mail.

The report claims that United and Southampton are among the clubs that have been informed about the Dutch midfielder’s desire to quit Turkey in January.

Galatasaray are reportedly ready to sell the 30-year-old star as they look to ease their debt problems.

However, Galatasaray board member Ali Dürüst has said that the club want to keep Sneijder at the club.

“We have no problem with Wesley Sneijder, he has no issues with us, we have not even considered selling him,” Dürüst said.

“We want him to stay with us and he has 1.5 years left on his contract. 

The former Real Madrid player lead Galatasaray to Turkish Cup glory last season and played an important role in Galatasaray reaching the Champions League quarter-finals.

Sneijder has scored four goals in 19 appearances for Galatasaray this season
