Manchester United has scouted Quintero lately and were reportedly lining up a bid for the Pescara youngster. But the midfielder has now revealed his desire to join Inter. Quintero was quoted in Gazzetta dello Sport:
“United? No, I like Inter. I prefer the Nerazzurri because they have a lot of South Americans at the club. And I’m happy in Italy.
“Saying that, it is clear that I would not turn down other strong teams because I’m ambitious: Manchester, Milan, Juventus…
“I’ll decide with my family and with my agent.
“I don’t know if I am worth that. I still need to learn and work hard. I need to improve as a player.”
Pescara is said to value Quintero at €10 million. The youngster has already earned his first senior cap for the national team and is the main focal point in the Columbian U-20 set up.
