In light of the transfer rumors linking him with Borussia Mönchengladbach, Rani Khedira has pledged all his focus is with 1.FC Union Berlin.

This afternoon,the 32-year-old told BILD: “I still have a contract here. Therefore, that's the current assumption.”

When asked whether Union Berlin fans should be worried about his departure, the newly capped Tunisian international was evasive. 

“You don't need to worry that I'm not focused on what's essential. I believe that's the most important thing in our current situation,” he said.

The defensive midfielder is under contract with Köpenick club until 2027 and seems too have his mind set on his current employers.
