Udinese midfielder Alexander Merkel has admitted that he wants to return to Germany at some point in the future.
The 21-year-old, who joined Udinese from AC Milan last January, began his career in the Bundesliga with Stuttgart.
"Back in January I had talks with various clubs, also with a few from Germany. It did not work out as I preferred to remain in Italy then," Merkel told Sport1.
"Basically I am keen on playing Bundesliga football one day in the future. There are great teams in the league and those stadiums are always sold out."
A number of Bundesliga sides are believed to be interested in his services.
