According to Bild, Tim Kleindienst has attracted interest from a number of Premier League clubs, including Wolverhampton and Everton.

However, Gladbach are not interested in selling their star striker, as managing director for sport Roland Virkus stresses in an interview with the German tabloid.

"Of course there are inquiries, that's normal when you're performing well," he told Bild.

“But we don't want to let any of our top players go, because something is being created here.”

Kleindienst, 29, has scored nine goals and laid on six assists in 17 appearances for Gladbach since joining from Heidenheim for a reported fee of €7 million last summer.
