Danish midfielder Martin Spelmann is keen on a move to England and admits a move to Reading would appeal to him.

The 26-year-old is set to quit his club AC Horsens this summer after they were relegated from the Danish Superliga.

Spelmann, who is a product of Brondby's youth academy, has been linked in the past with a move to Reading.

He admits he would relish a move to the Premier League but would have no issue moving to the Royals, who were relegated to the Championship last season.

When asked about the Reading rumours, Spelmann told Tipsbladet: "I have not seen or heard anything about it but it sure does sound nice if it is true.

"I have to get in touch with my agent. I hope there is some truth to it because that it would be awesome.

"I will not turn down a Premier League club but The Championship is a great league. I want to play in a league where I can grow as a player. If you get the chance to do so then you have to take it."

Sounds like a nice young chap.

Sounds a bit thin. Amounts to an out of contract player saying he would like to sign for us but nobody else knows anything about it.

Hasn't played many games for a 26-year old either, bit suspicious.

I heard he's got a wand of a right foot.

[ZacNaloen]

So who is the midfielder that is leaving the make room for him?

Most likely to say: 'A kingdom for a horsens'

[akranes]

For some reason if the player is foreign it's a yes from me. oxf*rd english players.

Anyways, he looks mobile - linking defense to attack? Also has scored a few. Worth a punt.

I don't like to see players with tattoos, so no to this one.

Just watched that... not the most encouraging set of highlights. Plenty of one-on-one misses.
If he has good facial hair I might forgive the above.

Look at his body though

Oh gawd, don't show RL this...she'll be changing her Tena Lady every 20 minutes.

I always find the foreign media more interesting when we get linked with players from abroad.

How's anyones Danish? - a quick Google Translate (which is pretty awful), seems to indicate that this goes beyond what we've had in the media over here.

Straight Google translation.

Horsens profile could not see himself continuing in the first division and has set two agents to obtain contract in The Championship.

Martin Spelmann not continue in AC Horsens, but is really tough for a future in the second best British series.

Tuesday it was reported that Reading from The Championship was ready with a bid of up to 15 million. million for the midfielder, who had not heard about the rumor before sporten.dk confronted him with it, but it turns out to be more than speculation, he is hardly slow to strike.

- This is the Championship, we are working very hard, and it's something we've put a lot of effort in, so if it is true, it is obviously interesting. I can not see myself taking another year in the first division in Denmark. It would cost me too much, says Martin Spelmann from his holiday in Turkey.

At a time when many players are on the hunt club, but clubs still holding the money, Martin Spelmann become actively engaged in efforts to find a new employer and has put people in both Denmark and England in turn.

- It's difficult times for players who want to continue, because there are many players in circulation, and it's not like five or six years ago, when you'd get what they want if you knew the right people. Therefore, we have invited some clubs here, and we have some video material that we provide clubs with home, and then I have an agent who primarily works in England, and so Michael Johansen of Denmark, says Martin Spelmann.

As Superliga player is likely reports on Martin Spelmann in several English clubs, for although he "is world famous or anything," he says, then most players at one time or another been scoutet, and the information that the clubs had garden, Martin Spelmann made sure to get updated.

- It may well be that there is a report that is one or two years old, but we are trying to brush up their notes, so they think of me if they need a type like me, says Martin Spelmann .

Although he is vacationing, he keeps his physical form at right and agreed with his agent that he considers his options when he returns home next week.

- But there has since already been positive feedback, he says.

According to AC Horsens' CEO, Henrik Ravn, there have been no specific inquiries, but in agreement with Martin Spelmann the club has said it is willing to look favorably on the possible deal.
