Germany rising star Mesut Ozil has hinted on following Michael Ballack's lead by making a move to the Barclays Premier League.The 21-year-old has been among the top performers in the 2010 FIFA World Cup and it looks inevitable that clubs come knocking on his door.
But Ozil, who is left with a year on his contract with Werder Bremen, has made the first move by expressing his interest in plying his trade in Spain or England.
"You look at what Manchester United and Chelsea have achieved over the last five years and you see it would be easy to be successful at two clubs like that," he told The Sun.
"I see what Michael Ballack achieved at Chelsea and the quality of players he played with and the temptation becomes obvious.
"Trophies are what matters to me. There are two teams in England always at the top and of course that's attractive. But the same is true for La Liga.
"They're the strongest leagues in the world."
However, the German midfielder is more than happy to cast his club future aside for now as he looks to help his national team overcome Diego Maradona's Argentina on Saturday.
"The World Cup is all that matters at the moment.
"When I get back we can think about my future, but for now it's not something I want to give a lot of thought to. To the top players the Premier League is attractive," he concluded.
