Turin based newspaper reports online that 22 year old German midfielder Leon Goretzka is likely going to end up in the Premier League amidst interest from Juventus and Barcelona.

However, Tuttosport quote former Udinese and AC Milan striker Oliver Bierhoff who currently works for the German FA, as having stated that: "Given the reveue that is being created by TV rights, yiung talented players like Sanée and Goretzka move to England and this is bad for the Bundesliga and the quality of our football. We have to be careful and invest in how we educate our coaches."

The Sporting Director of Goretzka's current club Schalke 04, Christian Heidel has said of the player that "we have done everything in our power to get him to stay, we cannot do anything more" regarding the club's attempts to extend the player's contract. 

This news is going to be music to the ears of Premier League trio Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham who are all hot on the youngsters trail whilst if Goretzka is to stay in the Bundesliga it will probably be with Bayern Munich who have also been linked with the player.
