Josko Gvardiol has dismissed speculation linking him with a move away from RB Leipzig in the summer.

Tottenham, among others, are said to be keeping tabs on the young centre-back, but he is not thinking about a move away from Leipzig.

"I really enjoy every day with this great team, at this first-class club," the 20-year-old centre-back told Bild.

"I don't think about anything else. And if you ask me if I'll play here next year: Yes, of course."

Leipzig signed Gvardiol on a five-year deal from Dinamo Zagreb for around €19 million last summer.

Since then, he has emerged as a key player for 'Die Roten Bullen', featuring 34 times with two goals and three assists to his name.
