German side 1.FC Nurnberg are eyeing making a profit on loan star Stefanos Tzimas, who is on the radar of Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United.
The 18-year-old forward joined Nurnberg on loan from Greek side PAOK Salonika in the summer and they have an option to sign him in the summer for €18m.
Tzimas has found the back of the net five times in nine 2. Bundesliga outings for Nurnberg so far this season, catching the eye in the process.
Now, according to German magazine Sport Bild (via Fussball Transfers), Tzimas’ form has three Premier League sides on his trail.
Tottenham, Newcastle and West Ham are all keen on the Greek attacker.
As such, Nurnberg are plotting to trigger the purchase option for Tzimas and then sell him on.
They would pay PAOK Salonika the agreed fee of €18m and then look to sell the 18-year-old on to an English club for a fee in excess of €20m.
He has been capped by Greece up to Under-21 level and came through the youth set-up at PAOK Salonika.
