Swiss starlet Granit Xhaka is unlikely to move to the Premier League this summer after revealing that he is close to joining German side Borussia Monchengladbach.
Xhaka, who plays for Basel, impressed during the Swiss side’s run to the last 16 of the Champions League this season, reportedly attracting the interest of suitors such as Liverpool.
However the 19-year-old, who has been capped six times, has indicated that he is likely to join Monchengladbach at the end of the current campaign.
Speaking about a switch to the Bundesliga side to Swiss newspaper Basler Zeitung, Xhaka said: "Personally, I have nothing to hide. For me, everything is settled. Now it's up to the clubs to decide."
Basel is thought to be demanding a fee of £8m for the young playmaker’s services.
