Borussia Dortmund attacker Kevin Grosskreutz has revealed he is still eager to make a “dream” move to the Premier League amidst rumoured interest from Liverpool.

The 24-year-old scored seven goals in 26 league starts last term as Jurgen Klopp’s men lifted the Bundesliga title ahead of Bayern Munich.

But, having seen his first-team action restricted this term due to the form of Jakub Blaszczykowski, Grosskreutz has conceded he is restless at his hometown club.

He told Goal.com: “Of course I’m not happy. Whoever is happy when he doesn’t play is in the wrong business. I’m totally unhappy. I want to play, that’s all that counts for me.”

Recent reports suggest that Liverpool could be set to offer Grosskreutz a January lifeline, but the midfielder remains relaxed about a move he admits he has been eyeing for some time.

“I have one-and-a-half year left. I’m taking it easy. We will see,” he added.

“The dream was there three, four years ago – it was always my dream. But I do have a contract with Borussia Dortmund. Everything’s possible in football but Dortmund are the first club to talk to.”
