Spurs, Southampton target Mark Uth focused on Hoffenheim

Mark Uth says he is only concern is playing well for 1899 Hoffenheim, despite Premier League speculation.

Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton have been heavily linked with a future move for the 25-year-old striker but the player himself is only focused on the task at hand with Hoffenheim.

"I've read it, but there's not too much to say. There's no interest," Uth told Kicker.

"It's definitely recognition, but I want to focus on football now, and be successful with Hoffenheim."

The 25-year-old has scored 14 goals in 36 outings since joining from Dutch side Heerenveen in 2015, including five in 10 this season which has helped Julian Nagelsmann's side remain the only undefeated team in the Bundesliga so far in 2016/17.
