BAYERN MUNICH defender Jerome Boateng is reportedly ‘open to a move to Tottenham’.
The experienced centre-back is keen to play in the Premier League in a boost to Spurs’ hopes of signing him.
According to SportBild, Boateng is flattered to be linked with Spurs although no talks have taken place.
The 32-year-old is reportedly keen to sample Premier League football and a potential move to London appeals.
Boateng has made 34 appearances, in all competitions, this season and has been a key figure for the German champions.
The defender’s contract expires this summer and he was controversially told on the day of the club’s Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain that it would not be extended.
This has, unsurprisingly, alerted a host of Europe’s top clubs.
As well as Spurs’ interest, Arsenal and Chelsea have also been linked with a move for Boateng.
The defender is also weighing up a potential move to the MLS.
But with several Premier League clubs expressing an interest, the German defender could be ready to move to England.
And Bayern Munich will have a new coach next season after Hansi Flick confirmed he intends to leave this summer.
