Real Madrid midfielder Guti said Friday that he would prefer a move to an English club if he leaves the PrimeraLiga side.

"I am keen to start a new chapter in my life. I have always said that if I leave Real I would love to play in England. The Premier League would be ideal," Guti told sports daily Marca.

The 28-year-old made 18 starts for Real last season but, after the arrival of coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo in December and Denmark midfielder Thomas Gravesen in the January transfer window, he spent more time on the bench.

Guti, who has a contract with Real till 2008, is not alone in being unsettled at the club. Portuguese winger Luis Figo has also expressed his unhappiness at being relegated to the substitute's bench.

Real finished second in the table, four points behind fierce rivals Barcelona.
