Bayern Munich defender Jerome Boateng is back on the radar of Premier League clubs.

The Germany international was linked with a return to England over the summer, though the former Manchester City stopper eventually chose to remain in Munich.

BILD football chief Christian Falk says Arsenal and Tottenham are watching Boateng's situation closely.

Indeed, Spurs boss Jose Mourinho is making a new pitch for Boateng, having been turned down by the veteran while in charge of Manchester United.

Boateng comes off contract in June.
