Klaas-Jan Huntelaar 'not under pressure' from transfer speculation

Schalke 04 striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has insisted that he is fully focused on getting a result for his German side against Arsenal in the Champions League this evening, despite rumours over his future.

The 29-year-old has been linked with a January switch to Liverpool following reports of contract issues at Schalke.

"I am not under any pressure because of the rumours about my future in the Premier League," the Daily Star quotes Huntelaar as saying. "My mission is to score goals and defeat Arsenal."

Huntelaar, who has been with the German outfit since 2010, is expected to start against Arsenal in their Champions League encounter tonight.
