Stuttgart defender Serdar Tasci told spox.com how he is “flattered” to be linked with the likes of A.C. Milan, Juventus and Arsenal.

He is quoted as saying:

I have the ambition to move clubs one day, but the time and circumstances have to be right for me. I have to admit I’m flattered that clubs like Arsenal, AC Milan and Juventus have had their eye on me in the past.

But I’m not getting carried away with this. I’m focused on Stuttgart and looking to return to action following my knee injury.

I’d love to play in the Champions League this season. We’ll have to show up in qualifying of course, but I don’t mind who we play. We want to advance to the group stages. We might be paired with Arsenal, but we can beat them as well.
