Mario Götze was on the verge of joining Inter during the January transfer window, according to Ruhr Nachrichten.

The 27-year-old ultimately stayed at Borussia Dortmund, but the Italian Serie A side remain interested in acquiring his services, as per the report.

Götze's contract with Dortmund runs out at the end of the season, and there is speculation as to whether Inter will make another attempt to sign him in January or next summer.

The offensive midfielder has played just 23 minutes for BVB this season until now.
