Sky Bet

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Mario Gotze admits he can 'imagine' extending his contract with the Bundesliga champions beyond 2014.

Gotze is among the most coveted young talents in Europe and the 19-year-old has been linked with the likes of Arsenal, Manchester United and Real Madrid.

Dortmund have insisted there is no pressure to sell the Germany international and Gotze has stressed he is happy with his current club.

"Of course I can imagine extending my contact at Dortmund," he said in an interview with Bild newspaper.

"I have always said how at home I feel here. And nothing has happened to change that.

"I have my family and friends here. And the whole Borussia Dortmund package with the coach and the team is simply outstanding."

Dortmund have already strengthened their squad for next season with the signing of another young Germany international, Marco Reus, who will join from Borussia Monchengladbach in the summer.
