RUMOURS
Yildiray Basturk has rubbished reports linking him with Tottenham and insists he wants to stay at Hertha Berlin.

The Turkey international was tipped for a move to White Hart Lane as his current contract is set to expire in the summer.
But he said: "Those reports are wrong. I am not in touch with them (Tottenham).
I enjoy playing for Hertha and they are the first team I will talk to regarding my contract for next season."
Basturk is hoping to return from a calf injury for the weekend clash with Werder Bremen but may have to bide his time on the bench.
Coach Falko Gotz said: "Having only just rejoined practice, he can't be back at 100%. I am sceptical about his appearance. But he certainly has not lost his playmaking abilities."
