Tim Kleindienst has become an instant hit at Borussia Mönchengladbach, with nine goals and six assists in 16 games since joining from Heidenheim in the summer.
His fine form has undoubtedly attracted a few admirers, but the 29-year-old is not considering a move away from Borussia-Park at the moment.
“I am not thinking about anything else at the moment, Gladbach is a huge club. I enjoy it here and that’s why things are going so well,” Kleindienst told Sport Bild.
After the European Championship in the summer, Kleindienst has managed to break into the German national team, making four appearances for Julian Nagelsmann’s side and scoring twice.
Naturally, it’s a great goal of his to make the squad for the 2026 World Cup, even though that’s still some way down the line.
“The World Cup is a dream, something incredible. But in my mind it’s still a long way off, there’s no plan for it. You’re not a regular in the national team. But I’m convinced that I haven’t reached the peak of my development yet,” said Kleindienst.
