Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Weigl has refused to deny the possibility that he will join Tottenham Hotspur this summer, after being tied to a transfer to the Premier League club during the transfer in January.
The German international has played only 15 of Der BVB's 33 games this season and missed his 3-0 defeat in the Champions League against the Spurs at Wembley last Wednesday due to illness.
Despite the lack of playing time this season, in part because of the form of his teammates Thomas Delaney and Axel Witsel, Weigl impressed when he was given the opportunity to appear for the Bundesliga leaders this season, operating both midfield defensive and central defender during this year's campaign.
According to reports in the German newspaper Bild in January, Tottenham reportedly investigated the availability of the 23-year-old during the transfer period, but Dortmund reportedly told him that he did not want to let him go in the middle of the season. .
S addressing Eurosport, the Dortmund midfielder answered the following questions regarding his future: "I know what I have at the club.
"That's why there was no reason to get excited or leave, I really like guys for that. You will see that [where his future lies]. I can not say what happens in summer. "
A change for Weigl this summer could become a priority for the Spurs boss, Mauricio Pochettino, who is looking for a new midfielder after the departure of Mousa Dembele in Guangzhou R & F, the Chinese Super League club , last month.
The Lilywhites could face the competition of Paris Saint Germain for the signing of the star of Dortmund, although Parisians are also linked to a move in January.
