Union Berlin midfielder Rani Khedira has commented on reports from Spain suggesting he had attracted interest from FC Barcelona.

"I don't have a Spanish number on my cell phone. It is currently a rumor, and I'm not thinking about it, because I play at a really awesome club," Khedira told Sky Germany.

"I feel very very comfortable here, and I'm focused on the last four games [of 2022] - and the second half of the season."

Union Berlin chief Oliver Ruhnert had previously addressed the rumor, saying:

"It's actually a financially weak club, but apparently also a financially strong one. I would love to hear what FC Barcelona would want from 1. FC Union Berlin," he said.
