Stuttgart sporting director Sven Mislintat has told Kicker that 'an English top club' have joined the race for the 23-year-old. Kicker speculates that Tottenham could be the club Mislintat is referring to.
Mislintat also addressed the speculation about Kobel in an interview with Bild, saying:
"The two clubs that are knocking on our door are clearly above us in the food chain. We will discuss this in a good atmosphere. We can be relaxed about it because we have a great chance of being well compensated financially."
Kobel recently confirmed that he's considering a move to Dortmund, admitting that a switch to Signal Iduna Park is 'definitely a topic' for him.
According to reports, it would take an offer of at least €15 million to prize Kobel away from Stuttgart.
Should Kobel leave Mercedes-Benz Arena, he could be replaced by Mainz's Florian Müller, who has spent the 2020/21 season on loan at Freiburg.
