On-loan Feyenoord midfielder Otman Bakkal says he could be tempted by a foreign move in the summer.

Prospect of overseas move appeals to Dutch midfielder

On-loan Feyenoord midfielder Otman Bakkal says he could be tempted by a foreign move in the summer. The Dutchman is spending the season on loan in Rotterdam from PSV and is out of contract in Eindhoven at the end of the campaign. Feyenoord are reportedly keen to sign the 26-year-old permanently on a free transfer when his PSV deal expires, but Bakkal is leaning towards a move overseas. The one-time Netherlands international told RTV Rijnmond: "I'm at an age where other countries are attractive to me. "I'll be available on a free transfer so there will be a choice to make, but it should be a good choice." Feyenoord have reportedly opened talks with the attacking midfielder over staying beyond his loan deal but he is reluctant to commit at this moment. He added: "The club wants to continue but I can honestly say I don't know what to decide."
