Tottenham are fighting Bayern Munich for Stuttgart winger Chris Fuhrich, who is set to star for Germany at the European Championships this summer.
Fuhrich moved to Stuttgart from Paderborn for £2m in the summer of 2021 and has caught they eye after eight goals and seven assists in the Bundesliga this season to help Stuttgart to second in the table.
Those displays earned the 26-year-old his first Germany cap in October, and Julian Nagelsmann has handed him a spot in the squad for their home tournament starting later this month.
Tottenham fight for Fuhrich
Bild journalist Christian Falk has revealed that Bayern and Tottenham are fighting for the left winger.
His current deal expires in 2028, but his contract includes a release clause of just €23.5m, which is presumably a key reason for the interest from the two clubs.
Sky Deutschland asked Fuhrich about his plans for the future ahead of Euro 2024, and while the forward insisted he was focused on Germany for now, he didn t rule out a move this summer.
“I don’t think about it much. I concentrate on the European Championships and always direct everything to my management. I don’t want to deal with that. It’s important for me to be on the pitch and enjoy myself,” he said.
When asked if it’s possible for him to continue at Stuttgart, Führich explained: “Yes! What we have achieved this year is something very special – for the club and for the fans. So yes, of course! Why shouldn’t it be imaginable?”
